iptables: Fix crash on malformed iptables-restore
Fixes the crash reported in Bugzilla #1131 where a malformed parameter that
specifies the table option during a restore can create an invalid pointer.
It was discovered during fuzz testing that options like '-ftf'
can cause a segfault. A parameter that includes a 't' is not currently
filtered correctly.
Improves the filtering to:
Filter a beginning '-' followed by a character other than '-' and then a 't'
anywhere in the parameter. This filters parameters like '-ftf'.
Filter '--t'.
Filter '--table', stopping when the parameter length is reached. Because the
getopt_long function allows abbreviations, any unique abbreviation of '--table'
will be treated as '--table'. This filters parameters like '--t', '--ta', but not
'--ttl' or '--target'.
