Increase the number of possible routing tables to 2^32 by replacing the
fixed sized array of pointers by a hash table and replacing iterations
over all possible table IDs by hash table walking.

Introduce RTA_TABLE route attribute and FRA_TABLE routing rule attribute
to hold 32 bit routing table IDs. Usespace compatibility is provided by
continuing to accept and send the rtm_table field, but because of its
limited size it can only carry the low 8 bits of the table ID. This
implies that if larger IDs are used, _all_ userspace programs using them
need to use RTA_TABLE.

Right now most inet_lookup_* functions take a host-order hnum instead
of a network-order dport because that's how it is represented
internally.
This means that users of these functions have to be careful about
using the right byte-order. To add more confusion, inet_lookup takes
a network-order dport unlike all other functions.
So this patch changes all visible inet_lookup functions to take a
dport and move all dport->hnum conversion inside them.
