Use routing policy and ctmark for routing to CLAT

This moves the route for IPv6 traffic from the PLAT to the CLAT into a
separate routing table, and uses the Linux kernel's routing policy
framework to redirect traffic into this routing table.

This makes it possible to set `clat-v6-addr` to an address also used by
the main host OS, removing the requirement for having a dedicated
secondary address assigned to the CLAT.

Additionally, support using nftables to set a connection tracking mark
on outbound connections from the CLAT, and ensuring only return traffic
matching that mark is returned back to the CLAT. This makes it possible
for the CLAT to share an IPv6 address with the main host OS without
breaking connectivity to DNS64-synthesised IPv6 addresses.

The trade-off of using a connection tracking mark is that the CLAT can
not receive unsolicited traffic from the IPv4 Internet via the PLAT.
However in the common case, where the PLAT is Stateful NAT64, that is
the case no matter what.

Closes #25.
