Fall back to 65536 buckets and 262144 entries.

It would be probably good to add code to autoadjust by reading
/proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_buckets and
/proc/sys/net/nf_conntrack_max.

Closes: https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1491

Thanks for the patch!

Would it make sense to have all this logic in evaluate() in src/run.c?

I think so. A patch to move it there would be fine.

I suspect there might more missing sanity checks in the configuration
file parser (options that are not set to default value, like hashsize
and hashlimit).
