libxtables: xtoptions: Fix for non-CIDR-compatible hostmasks

In order to parse the mask, xtopt_parse_hostmask() calls
xtopt_parse_plenmask() thereby limiting netmask support to prefix
lengths (alternatively specified in IP address notation).

In order to lift this impractical restriction, make
xtopt_parse_plenmask() aware of the fact that xtopt_parse_plen() may
fall back to xtopt_parse_mask() which correctly initializes val.hmask
itself and indicates non-CIDR-compatible masks by setting val.hlen to
-1.

So in order to support these odd masks, it is sufficient for
xtopt_parse_plenmask() to skip its mask building from val.hlen value and
take whatever val.hmask contains.
