[NETFILTER]: reduce netfilter sk_buff enlargement

As discussed at netconf'05, we're trying to save every bit in sk_buff.
The patch below makes sk_buff 8 bytes smaller.  I did some basic
testing on my notebook and it seems to work.

The only real in-tree user of nfcache was IPVS, who only needs a
single bit.  Unfortunately I couldn't find some other free bit in
sk_buff to stuff that bit into, so I introduced a separate field for
them.  Maybe the IPVS guys can resolve that to further save space.

Initially I wanted to shrink pkt_type to three bits (PACKET_HOST and
alike are only 6 values defined), but unfortunately the bluetooth code
overloads pkt_type :(

The conntrack-event-api (out-of-tree) uses nfcache, but Rusty just
came up with a way how to do it without any skb fields, so it's safe
to remove it.

- remove all never-implemented 'nfcache' code
- don't have ipvs code abuse 'nfcache' field. currently get's their own
  compile-conditional skb->ipvs_property field.  IPVS maintainers can
  decide to move this bit elswhere, but nfcache needs to die.
- remove skb->nfcache field to save 4 bytes
- move skb->nfctinfo into three unused bits to save further 4 bytes
