conntrack defrag is needed only if some module like CONNTRACK or NAT
explicitly requests it. For plain forwarding scenarios, defrag is
not needed and can be skipped if NOTRACK is set in a rule.

Since conntrack defrag is currently higher priority than raw table,
setting NOTRACK is not sufficient. We need to move raw to a higher
priority for iptables only.

This is achieved by introducing a module parameter which allows to
modify the priority. By default, the priority is NF_IP_PRI_RAW to
support legacy behavior.

v1->v2: Instead of modifying NF_IP_PRI_RAW itself, use a module
parameter to pass in the priority during module load as suggested
by Pablo. Also update commit text.
