iptables: libip(6)t_REJECT.man default icmp types
The extension man page shows "port-unreach" and "port-unreachable" as
default icmpv6 and icomp reject-with types. Either and variations work
fine for writing rules, but they are displayed as "icmp6-port-unreachable"
and "icmp-port-unreachable". Let's make that consistent.

extensions: libxt_connlabel: use libnetfilter_conntrack
Pablo suggested to make it depend on lnf-conntrack, and get rid of
the example config file as well.
The problem is that the file must be in a fixed path,
/etc/xtables/connlabel.conf, else userspace needs to "guess-the-right-file"
when translating names to their bit values (and vice versa).
Originally "make install" did put an example file into /etc/xtables/,
but distributors complained about iptables ignoring the sysconfdir.
So rather remove the example file, the man-page explains the format,
and connlabels are inherently system-specific anyway.

ip[6]tables: Add locking to prevent concurrent instances
There have been numerous complaints and bug reports over the years when admins
attempt to run more than one instance of iptables simultaneously. Currently
open bug reports which are related:
325: Parallel execution of the iptables is impossible
758: Retry iptables command on transient failure
764: Doing -Z twice in parallel breaks counters
822: iptables shows negative or other bad packet/byte counts
As Patrick notes in 325: "Since this has been a problem people keep running
into, I'd suggest to simply add some locking to iptables to catch the most
common case."
I started looking into alternatives to add locking, and of course the most
common/obvious solution is to use a pidfile. But this has various downsides,
such as if the application is terminated abnormally and the pidfile isn't
cleaned up. And this also requires a writable filesystem. Using a UNIX domain
socket file (e.g. in /var/run) has similar issues.
Starting in 2.2, Linux added support for abstract sockets. These sockets
require no filesystem, and automatically disappear once the application
terminates. This is the locking solution I chose to implement in ip[6]tables.
As an added bonus, since each network namespace has its own socket pool, an
ip[6]tables instance running in one namespace will not lock out an ip[6]tables
instance running in another namespace. A filesystem approach would have
to recognize and handle multiple network namespaces.

Why does the link succeed for some people? Because
/usr/lib(64)/libip6tc.so satisfies -lip6tc, but not all environments,
especially those without iptables development files, have that file,
hence this link error can happen.
