[iptables PATCH 0/7] Small ebtables-translate review + extras

[Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc>]

The initial goal was to fix the apparent problem of ebtables-translate
printing 'counter' statement in wrong position, namely after the
verdict. Turns out this happened when targets were used "implicitly",
i.e. without requesting them via '-j'. Since ebtables-nft loaded all
extensions (including targets) upfront, a syntax like:

| # ebtables-nft -A FORWARD --mark-set 1

was accepted and valid. The 'mark' target in this case was added to
iptables_command_state's 'match_list' as if it was a watcher.

Legacy ebtables does not allow this syntax, also it becomes hard for
users to realize why two targets can't be used in the same rule. So
reject this (in patch 2) and implicitly fix the case of 'counter'
statement in wrong position.

Fixing the above caused some fallout: Patch 1 fixes error reporting of
unknown arguments (or missing mandatory parameters) in all tools, patch
7 extends xlate-test.py to conveniently run for all libebt_*.txlate
files (for instance).

The remaining patches 3 to 6 contain cleanups of xtables-eb-translate.c
in comparison to xtables-eb.c, also kind of preparing for a merge of the
two largely identical parsers (at least).

Phil Sutter (7):
  Proper fix for "unknown argument" error message
  ebtables: Refuse unselected targets' options
  ebtables-translate: Drop exec_style
  ebtables-translate: Use OPT_* from xshared.h
  ebtables-translate: Ignore '-j CONTINUE'
  ebtables-translate: Print flush command after parsing is finished
  tests: xlate: Support testing multiple individual files
