[ovs-dev] [PATCH net-next] openvswitch: Only set mark and labels when commiting a connection.

Only allow setting conntrack mark or labels when the commit flag is
specified.  This makes sure we can not set them before the connection
has been persisted, as in that case the mark and labels would be lost
in an event of an userspace upcall.

OVS userspace already requires the commit flag to accept setting
ct_mark and/or ct_labels.  Validate for this on the kernel API.

Finally, set conntrack mark and labels right before committing so that
the initial conntrack NEW event has the mark and labels.
