connection tracking zones currently depend on the xtables CT target. The reasoning was that it makes no sense to support zones if they can't be configured (which needed CT target). Nowadays zones can also be used by OVS and configured via nftables, so remove the dependency. connection tracking labels are handled via hidden dependency that gets auto-selected by the connlabel match. Make it a visible knob, as labels can be attached via ctnetlink or via nftables rules (nft_ct expression) too. This allows to use conntrack labels and zones with nftables-only build.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
