netfilter: nf_tables: add __nft_chain_type_get()

commit 826035498ec14b77b62a44f0cb6b94d45530db6f upstream.

This new helper function validates that unknown family and chain type
coming from userspace do not trigger an out-of-bound array access. Bail
out in case __nft_chain_type_get() returns NULL from
nft_chain_parse_hook().

Fixes: 9370761c56b6 ("netfilter: nf_tables: convert built-in tables/chains to chain types")
