clinat: do not adjust UDP checksum if zero

As per RFC768, when the UDP checksum is zero, it means
it was not computed by the source, therefore any NAT
processing along the way should leave the checksum alone
and not update it.
Failing to do so would result in computing a bogus value.

At the same time, if the result of updating a non-zero
checksum ends up being zero, as per the same RFC, we must
store its one-complement (0xFFFF) as zero is reserved
for "checksum not computed", as mentioned above.

Ensure our Client NAT code follows both rules.
