"nftables" compatible binary, "ebtables-nft", is not 100% compatible
with the legacy API, as reported in LP#1922892.
This patch fixes the following issues when using "ebtables-nft" (while
keeping compatibility with legacy binary):
- When a new chain is created, a default DROP rule is added at the end
of the chain (append). This will prevent the error code 4 when the
chain is listed.
- The chain rules are added at the begining of the chain (insert),
before the default DROP rule. This will prioritize the port rules.
- The MAC rules are cleaned before the new ones are added. That will
prevent the deletion of any new needed rule, now added after the
deletion.
- The "ebtables" command will retry on error code 4. This is the
error returned when the chains are listed and no rule is present
in a new created chain (reporeted in LP#1922892).
This code is backwards compatible, that means it works with the legacy
"ebtables" binary; this is currently installed in the Neutron CI [1].
In order to test with the new binary, "ebtables-nft", two new CI jobs
are added to the periodic queue [2].
