    libnl: nfqueue: add nfqueue specific socket allocation function
    
    nfqueue users usually send verdict messages from the receive callback.
    When waiting for ACKs, the receive callback might be called again
    recursively until the stack blows up.
    
    Add a nfqueue specific socket allocation function that automatically
    disables ACKing for the socket.
