src: add --define key=value
This patch adds a new option to define variables from the command line. # cat test.nft table netdev x { chain y { type filter hook ingress devices = $dev priority 0; counter accept } } # nft --define dev="{ eth0, eth1 }" -f test.nft You can only combine it with -f/--filename.
