What do we dump on conntrack events? Good question, the following table 
should clarify 8)

                |   NEW   | UPDATE  | DESTROY |
      ----------------------------------------|
      tuples    |    Y    |    Y    |    Y    |
      status    |    Y    |    Y    |    N    |
      timeout   |    Y    |    Y    |    N    |
      protoinfo |    Y    |    Y    |    N    |
      helper    |    S    |    S    |    N    |
      counters  |    N    |    N    |    Y    |
      mark      |    S    |    S    |    N    |

  Leyend:
          Y: yes
          N: no
          S: iif the field is set

This patch also replace IPCT_HELPINFO by IPCT_HELPER since we want to 
track the helper assignation process, not the changes in the private 
information held by the helper.
