While working on more flexible forwarding stuff, noticed a couple of
warts here.

fwd_nat_from_splice() has several cases that deal with the possibility of
ini->oaddr being unspecified.  That used to be a possible case, but since
e3c4c4175ce6 ("tcp: Always populate oaddr field for socket initiated
flows") and 59cc89f4cc01 ("udp, udp_flow: Track our specific address on
socket interfaces") we now always populate ini->oaddr with a specified
address for all flows.

Remove the now-unnecessary fallback logic.

The order we do things in this function is slightly odd, and we have
a redundant assignment to tgt->oport.  Remove that, and re-order for
clarity.
