Subject: [PATCH] rule: fix sym refcount assertion

Scope release must happen last.
afl provided a reproducer where policy is a define, because
scope is released too early we get:
nft: src/rule.c:559: scope_release: Assertion `sym->refcnt == 1' failed.

... because chain->policy is EXPR_SYMBOL.

Fixes: 627c451b2351 ("src: allow variables in the chain priority specification")
