f3b34c84c2 net/nat: Support IPv6 Masquerading (NAT66)
Notes:
1. This version of NAT66 is a stateful one like NAT44, corresponding to Linux's MASQUERADE target of ip6tables.  We can support stateless NAT66 & NPTv6 later by slightly modify the address & port selection logic (maybe just match the rules and skip the entry find).
2. We're using same flag `IFF_NAT` for both NAT44 & NAT66 to make control easier.  Which means, if we enable NAT, both NAT44 & NAT66 will be enabled.  If we don't want one of them, we can just disable that one in Kconfig.
3. Maybe we can accelerate the checksum adjustment by pre-calculate a difference of checksum, and apply it to each packet, instead of calling `net_chksum_adjust` each time.  Just a thought, maybe do it later.
4. IP fragment segments on NAT66 connections are not supported yet.

a1a09f271f net/nat: Support Symmetric NAT
The symmetric NAT limits one external port to be used with only one peer ip:port.

Note:
1. To avoid using too much #ifdef, we're always passing peer_ip and peer_port as arguments, but won't use them under full cone NAT, let the compiler optimize them.
2. We need to find port binding without peer ip:port, so don't add peer ip:port into hash key.
3. Symmetric NAT needs to *select another external port if a port is used by any other NAT entry*, this behavior is exactly same as Full Cone NAT, so we don't need to change anything related to `ipv4_nat_port_inuse`.

879c337e30 net/nat: Use hashtable to optimize performance
Performance tested on simulator:

Before optimization:      -25% bandwidth @2k entries, -64% @10k entries
hashtable size=  2(1bit): -24% bandwidth @2k entries, -65% @10k entries
hashtable size=  4(2bits):-15% bandwidth @2k entries, -51% @10k entries
hashtable size= 32(5bits): -3% bandwidth @2k entries, -14% @10k entries
hashtable size=256(8bits): -1% bandwidth @2k entries,  -3% @10k entries

Note: Tested on worst performance, the earliest entry will be the worst.

8d401db5b9 net/nat: Add ICMP ECHO (REQUEST & REPLY) support
Support ICMP ECHO REQUEST & REPLY. Id of ICMP is processed like port of TCP in NAT. However, our ICMP stack doesn't have a method to manage id allocation like tcp_selectport(), the id is set by apps (like icmp_ping.c) without conflict avoidance, so not adding such conflict avoidance logic to ICMP stack when implementing NAT.

b595430578 net: add basic NAT workflow
Add basic functions for NAT (NAPT), remaining some logic unimplemented (UDP, ICMP, port assignment, etc). NAT for TCP can work now (unless port conflicts).
Outbound: LAN ->  Forward  ->  NAT(only if targeting at WAN)  -> WAN
Inbound:  WAN ->  NAT(only from WAN, change dest) -> Forward  -> LAN
