Currently, ovs_ct_set_labels() is only called for *confirmed* conntrack
entries (ct) within ovs_ct_commit(). However, if the conntrack entry
does not have the labels_ext extension, attempting to allocate it in
ovs_ct_get_conn_labels() for a confirmed entry triggers a warning in
nf_ct_ext_add():

  WARN_ON(nf_ct_is_confirmed(ct));

This happens when the conntrack entry is created externally before OVS
increases net->ct.labels_used. The issue has become more likely since
commit fcb1aa5163b1 ("openvswitch: switch to per-action label counting
in conntrack"), which switched to per-action label counting.

To prevent this warning, this patch modifies ovs_ct_set_labels() to
call nf_ct_labels_find() instead of ovs_ct_get_conn_labels() where
it allocates the labels_ext if it does not exist, aligning its
behavior with tcf_ct_act_set_labels().

conntrack")
