    openvswitch: support asymmetric conntrack

    the openvswitch module shares a common conntrack and nat infrastructure
    exposed via netfilter.  it's possible that a packet needs both snat and
    dnat manipulation, due to e.g. tuple collision.  netfilter can support
    this because it runs through the nat table twice - once on ingress and
    again after egress.  the openvswitch module doesn't have such capability.

    like netfilter hook infrastructure, we should run through nat twice to
    keep the symmetry.
