Currently there are two iptables rules per port for each link: one to
allow the parent to connect to the child's port, and another one to
allow return traffic from the child back to the parent. The second rule
shouldn't be needed because the "ctstate RELATED,ESTABLISHED" rule can
already allow all established traffic.
So this patch does the following:
1. Move the RELATED,ESTABLISHED rule to be _before_ the potential
inter-container communication DROP rule so it will work for
inter-container traffic as well. Since we're inserting, everything
is reversed chronologically so it should be inserted _after_ we
insert the DROP. This also has a small performance benefit because
it will be processed earlier and it's generally one of the most
commonly used rules.
2. Get rid of the unnecessary return traffic rule per link.
3. Also move the other "Accept all non-intercontainer outgoing packets"
rule to earlier. This gives a small performance benefit since it's
also a commonly used rule, and it makes sense to logically group it
next to the ctstate rule.
