While the default iptables setup used by Fedora/RHEL distros
only restricts traffic on the INPUT and/or FORWARD rules,
some users might have custom firewalls that restrict the
OUTPUT rules too.
These can prevent DHCP/DNS/TFTP responses from dnsmasq
from reaching the guest VMs. We should thus whitelist
these protocols in the OUTPUT chain, as well as the
INPUT chain.

Creating firewall rules for the virtual networks causes the kernel to
load the conntrack module. This imposes a significant performance
penalty on Linux network traffic. Thus we want to only take that hit if
we actually have virtual networks running.
We need to create global firewall rules during startup in order to
"upgrade" rules for any running networks created by older libvirt.
If no running networks are present though, we can safely delay setup
until the time we actually start a network.

tests: handle backspace-newline pairs in test input files
all the test argv files were line wrapped so that the args
were less than 80 characters.
The way the line wrapping was done turns out to be quite
undesirable, because it often leaves multiple parameters
on the same line. If we later need to add or remove
individual parameters, then it leaves us having to redo
line wrapping.
This commit changes the line wrapping so that every
single "-param value" is one its own new line. If the
"value" is still too long, then we break on ',' or ':'
or ' ' as needed.
This means that when we come to add / remove parameters
from the test files line, the patch diffs will only
ever show a single line added/removed which will greatly
simplify review work.
