netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: fix entry leak in bridge verdict error path
nfqnl_recv_verdict() calls find_dequeue_entry() to remove the queue
entry from the queue data structures, taking ownership of the entry.
For PF_BRIDGE packets, it then calls nfqa_parse_bridge() to parse VLAN
attributes. If nfqa_parse_bridge() returns an error (e.g. NFQA_VLAN
present but NFQA_VLAN_TCI missing), the function returns immediately
without freeing the dequeued entry or its sk_buff.
This leaks the nf_queue_entry, its associated sk_buff, and all held
references (net_device refcounts, struct net refcount). Repeated
triggering exhausts kernel memory.
Fix this by dropping the entry via nfqnl_reinject() with NF_DROP verdict
on the error path, consistent with other error handling in this file.
