Support direct writes to nf_conn:mark from TC and XDP prog types. This
is useful when applications want to store per-connection metadata. This
is also particularly useful for applications that run both bpf and
iptables/nftables because the latter can trivially access this metadata.

One example use case would be if a bpf prog is responsible for advanced
packet classification and iptables/nftables is later used for routing
due to pre-existing/legacy code.

Past discussion:
- v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/CAP01T74Sgn354dXGiFWFryu4vg+o8b9s9La1d9zEbC4LGvH4qg@mail.gmail.com/T/
- v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/cover.1660592020.git.dxu@dxuuu.xyz/

Changes since v2:
- Remove use of NOT_INIT for btf_struct_access write path
- Disallow nf_conn writing when nf_conntrack module not loaded
- Support writing to nf_conn___init:mark

Changes since v1:
- Add unimplemented stub for when !CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL

  bpf: Use 0 instead of NOT_INIT for btf_struct_access() writes
  bpf: Add support for writing to nf_conn:mark
  selftests/bpf: Add tests for writing to nf_conn:mark
