    pf: Do not hash pool address pointers into rule hashes
    
    pf_hash_pool() hashes the first address of a pool as a whole struct
    pf_addr_wrap, including the union that holds the kernel's pfi_dynaddr
    or pfr_ktable pointer.
    
    An interface pool such as "-> ($ext_if)" gets a new pfi_dynaddr on
    every load, so with "set keepcounters" the rule never matches its
    predecessor and loses its counters on every reload.  The pointers also
    differ between hosts: once a filter rule in the main ruleset has an
    interface or table pool, pfsync peers disagree on the ruleset checksum
    and bind every synced state to the default rule.
    
    Hash the address with that union cleared.  The rest of the address,
    including the prefix length of an interface address, is hashed as
    before, and the hash of a rule with a plain address pool does not
    change.
