nwfilter: Fix instantiated layer 2 rules for 'inout' direction
With Eric Blake's suggestions applied. The following rule for direction 'in' <rule direction='in' action='drop'> <mac srcmacaddr='1:2:3:4:5:6'/> </rule> drops all traffic from the given mac address. The following rule for direction 'out' <rule direction='out' action='drop'> <mac dstmacaddr='1:2:3:4:5:6'/> </rule> drops all traffic to the given mac address. The following rule in direction 'inout' <rule direction='inout' action='drop'> <mac srcmacaddr='1:2:3:4:5:6'/> </rule> now drops all traffic from and to the given MAC address. So far it would have dropped traffic from the given MAC address and outgoing traffic with the given source MAC address, which is not useful since the packets will always have the VM's MAC address as source MAC address. The attached patch fixes this. This is the last bug I currently know of and want to fix.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
