Should we be reverting iptables to iptables-legacy for eoan?

Hi folks,

it turns out that lxd is broken by iptables now using the nft
based stuff, because lxd is still using the legacy one from
inside the snap.

This provides a terrible experience because networking in lxd
is not working at all once you enable ufw.

I'd suggest we increase the priority of iptables-legacy for eoan,
so that it is the default, and move the switch to xtables-nft-based
one to next release.

This will allow us to have working lxd networking, and gives
the lxd team some breathing room.
