[PATCH nft RFC] payload: use ethertype in hexadecimal for meta protocol

[Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>]

This is a temporary workaround to avoid parsing problems since
ip and arp are misinterpreted by the parser. It also uses ipv6
which is different from ip6 and it seems inconsistent to me.

A possible alternative to this patch could be to use something
like: ether-arp ether-ip ether-ipv6 ether-vlan, as these represent
ethernet protocol types.
