iptables: restore NOTRACK functionality, target aliasing
Commit v1.4.16-1-g2aaa7ec is testing for real_name (not) being NULL
which was always false (true). real_name was never NULL, so cs->jumpto
would always be used, which rendered -j NOTRACK unusable, since the
chosen real name.revision is for example NOTRACK.1, which does not exist
at the kernel side.
# ./iptables/xtables-multi main4 -t raw -A foo -j NOTRACK
dbg: Using NOTRACK.1
WARNING: The NOTRACK target is obsolete. Use CT instead.
iptables: Protocol wrong type for socket.
To reasonably support the extra-special verdict names, make it so that
real_name remains NULL when an extension defined no alias, which we can
then use to determine whether the user entered an alias name (which
needs to be followed) or not.
[ I have mangled this patch to remove a comment unnecessarily large.
BTW, this patch gets this very close to the initial target aliasing
