[NETFILTER]: ctnetlink: clear helper area and handle unchanged helper
This patch
- Clears private area for helper even if no helper is assigned to
conntrack. It might be used by old helper.
- Unchanges if the same helper as the used one is specified.
- Does not find helper if no helper is specified. And it does not
require private area for helper in that case.
