[pve-devel] [PATCH pve-firewall v4 5/9] nftables: make is_nftables check flag file instead of config

[Stefan Hanreich <s.hanreich@proxmox.com>]

is_nftables is used in the VM and CT network startup scripts to
determine whether the nftables firewall is enabled or not. This causes
issues on container and VM startup when loading the SDN config, since
it requires the RPCEnvironment which is not initialized yet. Therefore
change this check to look for the existence of the flag file instead.

It also avoids parsing the entire cluster and host firewall
configuration on VM / CT startup, which means increased performance.

While we're at it, make all methods related to the configuration
parsing private, in order to avoid accidental usage of the expensive
methods.
