    libxt_NFQUEUE: add new v1 version with queue-balance option
    
    New version that adds support for specifying a queue range instead
    of a single queue id.
    The kernel will distribute flows across the given queue range.
    
    This is useful for multicore systems, simply start multiple instances
    of the userspace program on queues x, x+1, .. x+n and use
    "--queue-balance x:x+n".
    Packets belonging to the same connection are put into the same queue.
    
    With fixes from Jan Engelhardt.
