This patch adds IPv6 filtering support for the following protocols:
- tcp-ipv6
- udp-ipv6
- udplite-ipv6
- esp-ipv6
- ah-ipv6
- sctp-ipv6
- all-ipv6
- icmpv6
Many of the IPv4 data structure could be re-used for IPv6 support.
Since ip6tables also supports pretty much the same command line parameters
as iptables does, also much of the code could be re-used and now
command lines are invoked with the ip(6)tables tool parameter passed
through the functions as a parameter.
This patch removes the driver dependency from nwfilter_conf.c and moves
a callback function calling into the driver into
nwfilter_gentech_driver.c and passes a pointer to that callback function
upon initialization of nwfilter_conf.c.
This patch adds support for L3/L4 filtering using iptables. This adds
support for 'tcp', 'udp', 'icmp', 'igmp', 'sctp' etc. filtering.
As mentioned in the introduction, a .c file provided by this patch
is #include'd into a .c file. This will need work, but should be alright
for review.

This patch adds IPv6 support for the ebtables layer. Since the parser
etc. are all parameterized, it was fairly easy to add this...

This patch implements the core driver and provides
- management functionality for managing the filter XMLs
- compiling the internal filter representation into ebtables rules
- applying ebtables rules on a network (tap,macvtap) interface
- tearing down ebtables rules that were applied on behalf of an
interface
- updating of filters while VMs are running and causing the firewalls to
be rebuilt
- other bits and pieces
