netfilter: nf_tables: Fix nft limit burst handling
Current implementation treats the burst configuration the same as rate configuration. This can cause the per packet cost to be lower than configured. In effect, this bug causes the token bucket to be refilled at a higher rate than what user has specified. This patch changes the implementation so that the token bucket size is controlled by "rate + burst", while maintain the token bucket refill rate the same as user specified.
