network: don't add iptables rules for externally managed networks
This patch addresses https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=760442 When a network has any forward type other than route, nat or none, the network configuration should be done completely external to libvirt - libvirt only uses these types to allow configuring guests in a manner that isn't tied to a specific host (all the host-specific information, in particular interface names, port profile data, and bandwidth configuration is in the network definition, and the guest configuration only references it). Due to a bug in the bridge network driver, libvirt was adding iptables rules for networks with forward type='bridge' etc. any time libvirtd was restarted while one of these networks was active. This patch eliminates that error by only "reloading" iptables rules if forward type is route, nat, or none.
