quota2: add a no-change mode

Browse Source 
This commit adds an option to xt_quota2 called "no-change". The
effect of this option, when used, is that it will skip incrementing
or decrementing the quota counter, effectively providing a quota test
only.

The reason for implementing this is so that I could have a rule check
if quota is available for a rule in the PREROUTING tables, without
actually decrementing the amount of available quota. I only wanted to
decrement the amount of available quota in the FORWARD rule.
Otherwise, the first packet of every connection would be counted
twice.

Makes it so the counter or quota amount is never changed by packets matching
this rule. This is only really useful in "quota" mode, as it will allow you to
use complex prerouting rules in association with the quota system, without
counting a packet twice.
