Hi,
I think that current nftables package is missing the
nft list chainandnft list tablefunctionality. Without this functionality, current user code that wants to manage one specific table or chain has to fetch all of tables/chains and then iterate until it matches the desired table/chain by name (and family). This pull request adds the ability to fetch the table/chain with a single request that returns the desired table/chain immediately.Current change should not affect existing usage of
ListTablesOfFamilyorListChainsOfTableFamily. Tests are also added.Let me know what you think.
