extensions: libxt_cluster: add note on arptables-jf
Gao feng reported problems while getting the cluster match working with arptables. This patch adds a note in the manpage to warn about the arptables-jf syntax, which is different from mainstream arptables. Reported-by: Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

+\fBNOTE\fP: the arptables commands above use mainstream syntax. If you
+are using arptables-jf included in some RedHat, CentOS and Fedora
+versions, you will hit syntax errors. Therefore, you'll have to adapt
+these to the arptables-jf syntax to get them working.

valid.
