To get libnftnl/flowtable.h nftables now needs a newer libftnl than the latest
release. This temporary check advises the unwary of that.
This test can be removed once libnftnl 1.0.10 is released (and tested for).

Thanks Duncan.

I have updated libnftnl version and updated nft dependencies, so we
can avoid breaking compilation now. I think it's fine if we just bump
versions numbers now, no need to wait for release.
