netfilter: nf_tables: Introduce NFTA_DEVICE_PREFIX

This new attribute is supposed to be used instead of NFTA_DEVICE_NAME
for simple wildcard interface specs. It holds a NUL-terminated string
representing an interface name prefix to match on.

While kernel code to distinguish full names from prefixes in
NFTA_DEVICE_NAME is simpler than this solution, reusing the existing
attribute with different semantics leads to confusion between different
versions of kernel and user space though:

* With old kernels, wildcards submitted by user space are accepted yet
  silently treated as regular names.
* With old user space, wildcards submitted by kernel may cause crashes
  since libnftnl expects NUL-termination when there is none.

Using a distinct attribute type sanitizes these situations as the
receiving part detects and rejects the unexpected attribute nested in
*_HOOK_DEVS attributes.
