Modules xt_owner and xt_conntrack are located in kernel-modules-extra package for distros like RHEL. In case they are not present, fallback to nftables from iptables; to network-setup service from firewall-cmd respectively. Signed-off-by: Li Tian <litian@redhat.com>

Description
There are firewall rules invoked without checking the existence of the dependent kernel modules, e.g. xt_owner and xt_conntrack. These modules reside in kernel-modules-extra in distros like RHEL. The kernel-modules-extra package is not a dependency of iptables in terms of UKI. Thus the existence deserves checking. In case they are not present, fallback to nftables from iptables; to network-setup service from firewall-cmd respectively.
