netfilter: ebt_nflog: pin the NFLOG backend

nf_log_unregister() runs after the per-net teardown so its final RCU
grace period also drains readers that obtained the logger from a per-net
binding.  However, ebt_nflog passes an explicit ULOG log type to
nf_log_packet() without holding a reference on the selected logger module,
unlike the xt_NFLOG and nft_log frontends.

An ebtables nflog rule can therefore remain callable while nfnetlink_log
is unloaded.  The resulting interleaving is:

  CPU 0                               CPU 1
  nfnetlink_log_fini()
    unregister_pernet_subsys()
      kfree(nfnl_log_pernet(net))
                                      ebt_nflog_tg()
                                        nf_log_packet()
                                          nfulnl_log_packet()
                                            instance_lookup_get_rcu()

The global ULOG logger is still registered at this point, so CPU 1
dereferences the per-net state after CPU 0 has freed it.  KASAN reported:

Acquire the ULOG logger module reference when an ebt_nflog rule is
validated and release it when the rule is destroyed.  Request the NFLOG
backend for legacy callers when needed, matching xt_NFLOG.  This prevents
module teardown until all ebt_nflog rules have stopped using the logger.
