netfilter: nf_tables: Deduplicate nft_register_obj audit logs

When adding/updating an object, the transaction handler emits suitable
audit log entries already, the one in nft_obj_notify() is redundant. To
fix that (and retain the audit logging from objects' 'update' callback),
Introduce an "audit log free" variant for internal use.

Fixes: c520292f29b8 ("audit: log nftables configuration change events once per table")
