Let's just drop the ipv6 stuff from the NAT action support, and we can
add it later when I address the flow key side of it.

I do like that we can use the flow output from the running ovs-vswitchd
to generate test cases. I'd like, as much as possible, to try and keep
it compatible.

I will adjust when I resubmit.
