xtoptions: fill in fallback value for nvals
Parsing for libxt_conntrack rev 2 is done by using rev 2's option structure, which specifies XTTYPE_PORT, and using rev 3's parser skeleton, which uses cb->nvals. Reading cb->nvals when not using XTTYPE_PORTRC (or any other multi-value type) is undefined behavior. Make it defined. Since XTTYPE_NONE is the only type that can take void, nvals logically ought to be 1.
