The 'iptables-save' command behaves differently on rpm and deb based platforms.
rpm based: If an iptable has been interacted with, it will show up in the command even if it is empty.
deb based: If an iptable has been interacted with, it may not show up in the command if it is empty. If we add and then delete a rule, it shows up. But if we create the table using "iptables -N" it doesn't.
Specific tables always show up with "iptables -t #{table_name}".
Since, the tables are always already created and the module supports a specific set of them. This commit tries to check if they exist one by one using the "iptables -t" command.
Also, since the tables are being checked like this, all tables show up in the output, so adjusted the rpsec according to that.

Summary
Fix non-idempotency of firewall table creation
Additional Context
The 'iptables-save' command behaves differently on rpm and deb based platforms.
rpm based: If an iptable has been interacted with, it will show up in the command even if it is empty.
deb based: If an iptable has been interacted with, it may not show up in the command if it is empty. If we add and then delete a rule, it shows up. But if we create the table using "iptables -N" it doesn't.
Specific tables always show up with "iptables -t #{table_name}".
Since, the tables are always already created and the module supports a specific set of them. This commit tries to check if they exist one by one using the "iptables -t" command.
Also, since the tables are being checked like this, all tables show up in the output, so adjusted the rpsec according to that.
Root cause: This occurs because iptables do not show up in the 'iptables' command when they are empty in deb based distributions.
