nftables 1.0.6.y stable branch updates (strike 2)

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

Hi,

I have updated the 1.0.6.y -stable branch:

https://git.netfilter.org/nftables/log/?h=1.0.6.y

This branch contains 334 selected commits out of the 887 commits
available between v1.0.6 and git HEAD.

I have backported tests/shell and tests/py based on git HEAD on this
branch, so this stable branch is self-contained.

- tests/shell displays:
  I: results: [OK] 428 [SKIPPED] 23 [FAILED] 0 [TOTAL] 451

- tests/py: No errors. This includes -j for json testing.

I have tested with libnftnl 1.2.4 and Linux kernel 6.1-stable.

I might still collect a few more recent fixes in git HEAD from the
last two months.

Proposed plan is to release this -stable 1.0.6.y after nftables 1.1.4
comes out, in the first two weeks of Aug 2025.

For the record: I have just updated this branch again to include 52
more backported recent fixes.

A new nftables 1.1.5 release might happen due to a regression in the
JSON parser, release time for this 1.0.6.y -stable branch is expected
before Sep 2025.
