We have to release the existing objects on netns removal otherwise we
leak them. Chains are unregistered in first place to make sure no
packets are walking on our rules and sets anymore.

I've run a kernel with this patch, did some tests regarding netns and
nftables, and found no problems so far :-)

I have detected a problem in this patch.

The netns_exit path from every family is removing the afinfo object
before this iteration here, so this is not working in case family
netns exit callbacks are called before the ones from the core.

I'm going to toss it, will send a new version.
