Ensure iptables are flushed

An XCCDF Rule

Description

nftables is a replacement for iptables, ip6tables, ebtables and arptables

Rationale

It is possible to mix iptables and nftables. However, this increases complexity and also the chance to introduce errors. For simplicity flush out all iptables rules, and ensure it is not loaded.
