openvswitch: support asymmetric conntrack
commit 5d50aa83 upstream. The openvswitch module shares a common conntrack and NAT infrastructure exposed via netfilter. It's possible that a packet needs both SNAT and DNAT manipulation, due to e.g. tuple collision. Netfilter can support this because it runs through the NAT table twice - once on ingress and again after egress. The openvswitch module doesn't have such capability. Like netfilter hook infrastructure, we should run through NAT twice to keep the symmetry. Fixes: 05752523 ("openvswitch: Interface with NAT.")
