Subject: [PATCH -next] netfilter: Make NETFILTER_NETLINK_HOOK depends on NF_TABLES

Compiling errors happen when CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_HOOK = y
while CONFIG_NF_TABLES is not set:

net/netfilter/nfnetlink_hook.c: In function ‘nfnl_hook_put_nft_chain_info’:
net/netfilter/nfnetlink_hook.c:76:7: error: implicit declaration of function
‘nft_is_active’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   76 |  if (!nft_is_active(net, chain))
      |       ^~~~~~~~~~~~~

Notice that nft_is_active macro is only defined when CONFIG_NF_TABLES
is enabled, so add dependency on NF_TABLES in NETFILTER_NETLINK_HOOK
configurations.

Fixes: e2cf17d3774c ("netfilter: add new hook nfnl subsystem")
