Hi there,

nftables is already available but i am missing the other tools
to interact with the netfilter kernel subsystem.

This patch series, aside from some netfilter dependencies,
includes three main attractions. Details of which, can be found
in the description slots.

1. conntrack-tools
2. nfacct
3. ulogd

- fixed native-inputs and inputs
- fixed names s/_/-/
- fixed licenses, i took the license mentioned in the sources
- fixed the description of libnetfilter-cthelper
- added supported-systems, netfilter is linux specific
- removed trailing #t in phases of ulogd

- fixed names s/_/-/
- fixed libnetfilter-cttimeout inputs
- use #$output where possible
- keep urls as a single string literal
- move supported-systems to the 'bottom'
- have every ulogd plugin in a separate output. To use a plugin, one
   has to include the absolute path to the <plugin>.so in the ulogd
   config file. That means, from a package point of view, no extra
   measures are necessary to make the plugins available to ulogd.
   A ulogd-service-type will need to take care of the plugin paths.
