[PATCH nft 2/2] src: restore interface to index cache

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

nftables used to have a cache to speed up interface name <-> index, restore it
using libmnl.

This reduces netlink traffic since if_nametoindex() and if_indexto_name() open,
send request, receive and close a netlink socket for each call.  I think this
is also good for consistency since nft -f will operate with the same index
number when reloading the ruleset.

We still need special handling for the nft -i case.
