The following nftables test case fails on nf-next:

tests/shell/run-tests.sh tests/shell/testcases/transactions/0011chain_0

The test case contains:
add chain x y { type filter hook input priority 0; }
add chain x y { policy drop; }"

The new test
if (chain->flags ^ flags)
        return -EOPNOTSUPP;

triggers here, because chain->flags has NFT_BASE_CHAIN set, but flags
is 0 because no flag attribute was present in the policy update.

Just fetch the current flag settings of a pre-existing chain in case
userspace did not provide any.
