iptables: add upstream patch fixing the message 'connlabel.conf not found'

In iptables versions 1.4.20 and 1.4.21, any call to iptables
would generate a message

    cannot open connlabel.conf, not registering 'connlabel' match: No
        such file or directory

This problem was reported at [1] and subsequently fixed with commit [2], but
no upstream release has been made since. This patch imports the fix into
Buildroot, awaiting a new release of iptables.

+Subject: extensions: libxt_connlabel: do not open config file from _init hook
+
+else, static builds will print this for every iptables invocation,
+even 'iptables -L'.  Delay open until we need to translate a mapping.
