iptables and ip6tables have had a "-w" commandline option to grab a
systemwide lock that prevents two iptables invocations from modifying
the iptables chains since 2013 (upstream commit 93587a04 in
iptables-1.4.20). Similarly, ebtables has had a "--concurrent"
commandline option for the same purpose since 2011 (in the upstream
ebtables commit f9b4bcb93, which was present in ebtables-2.0.10.4).
Libvirt added code to conditionally use the commandline option for
iptables/ip6tables in upstream commit ba95426d6f (libvirt-1.2.0,
November 2013), and for ebtables in upstream commit dc33e6e4a5
(libvirt-1.2.11, November 2014) (the latter actually *re*-added the
locking for iptables/ip6tables, as it had accidentally been removed
during a refactor of firewall code in the interim).
I say "conditionally" because a check was made during firewall module
initialization that tried executing a test command with the
-w/--concurrent option, and only continued using it for actual
commands if that test command completed successfully. At the time the
code was added this was a reasonable thing to do, as it had been less
than a year since introduction of -w to iptables, so many distros
supported by libvirt were still using iptables (and possibly even
ebtables) versions too old to have the new commandline options.
It is now 2020, and as far as I can discern from repology.org (and
manually examining a RHEL7.9 system), every version of every distro
that is supported by libvirt now uses new enough versions of both
iptables and ebtables that they all have support for -w/--concurrent.
That means we can finally remove the conditional code and simply
always use them.

All the unit tests that use iptables/ip6tables/ebtables have been
written to omit the locking/exclusive use primitive on the generated
commandlines. Even though none of the tests actually execute those
commands (and so it doesn't matter for purposes of the test whether or
not the commands support these options), it still made sense when some
systems had these locking options and some didn't.
We are now at a point where every supported Linux distro has supported
the locking options on these commands for quite a long time, and are
going to make their use non-optional. As a first step, this patch uses
the virFirewallSetLockOverride() function, which is called at the
beginning of all firewall-related tests, to set all the bools
controlling whether or not the locking options are used to true. This
means that all the test cases must be updated to include the proper
locking option in their commandlines.
The change to make actual execs of the commands unconditionally use
the locking option will be in an upcoming patch - this one affects
only the unit tests.

When running tests in a restricted container (as opposed to a full
OS install), we can't assume ebtables/iptbles/ip6tables are going
to be installed. We must check this and mark the tests as skipped.

Some of the nwfilter tests are now failing since --concurrent shows
up in the ebtables command. To avoid this, implement a function
preventing the probing for lock support in the eb/iptables tools
and use it in the tests.

Refactor the ebiptablesTearNewRules function so that the teardown of temporary
filters can also be called by the ebiptablesAllTeardown function.
This fixes a problem that leaves temporary filters behind when a VM shuts down
while its filters are modified.
