netfilter: xtables: generate initial table on-demand
The static initial tables are pretty large, and after the net namespace has been instantiated, they just hang around for nothing. This commit removes them and creates tables on-demand at runtime when needed. Size shrinks by 7735 bytes (x86_64). Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>
