[libvirt] [PATCH] util: refactor iptables command construction into multiple steps

Instead of creating an iptables command in one shot, do it in steps
so we can add conditional options like physdev and protocol.

This removes code duplication while keeping existing behaviour.

This started with me wanting to add support for setting the public ip source
address when network mode='nat' and there are multiple public ip addresses
on the external interface.

On IRC we talked about adding an option in the xml like this:
<network>
  <forward mode='nat' publicaddr='n.n.n.n'/>
</network>

Which would make iptables use '-j SNAT --to-source n.n.n.n' instead of
'-j MASQUERADE'.

However with the current approach we would need to construct 8 different
iptables command combinations, hence the need for refactoring.

Thanks!
