Laine Stump 54f9492353 network: properly update iptables rules during net-update
This patch resolves:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1035336

The basic problem is that during a network update, the required
iptables rules sometimes change, and this was being handled by simply
removing and re-adding the rules. However, the removal of the old
rules was done based on the *new* state of the network, which would
mean that some of the rules would not match those currently in the
system, so the old rules wouldn't be removed.

This patch removes the old rules prior to updating the network
definition then adds the new rules as soon as the definition is
updated. Note that this could lead to a stray packet or two during the
interim, but that was already a problem before (the period of limbo is
now just slightly longer).

While moving the location for the rules, I added a few more sections
that should result in the iptables rules being redone:

DHCP_RANGE and DHCP_HOST - these are needed because adding/removing a dhcp
host entry could lead to the dhcp service being started/stopped, which
would require that the mangle rule that fixes up dhcp response
checksums sould need to be added/removed, and this wasn't being done.
