Added ability to specify nft bin location

Gentoo installs nft binary into /sbin/nft in accordance with the
filesystem spec:

https://devmanual.gentoo.org/general-concepts/filesystem/

This commit adds the ability to specify the location of nft binary
through variable nft__bin_location.

By default it is set to "/usr/sbin/nft".
