So if nat_select_range_tuple() is called, and it runs the "*nat_conn =
*conn;" line which updates conn_for_un_nat_copy, then
nat_select_range_tuple() fails to select a tuple and returns false,
then the if (!nat_res) cleanup / return NULL path is called, then what
cleans up the dangling pointers that are now in conn_for_un_nat_copy?
