* src/nwfilter/nwfilter_ebiptables_driver.c
(ebiptablesWriteToTempFile): Use /bin/sh.
(bash_cmd_path): Delete.
(ebiptablesDriverInit, ebiptablesDriverShutdown): No need to
search for bash.
(CMD_EXEC): Prefer $() over ``, since we can assume POSIX.
(iptablesSetupVirtInPost): Use portable 'test' syntax.
(iptablesLinkIPTablesBaseChain): Use POSIX $(()) syntax.
---
It turns out that the current use of test x == x in nwfilter
was technically safe after all, since we were requiring the
existence of bash (and that was also relatively reasonable,
since nwfilter is only compiled for Linux). But that still
feels awkward, when it is easier to just fix things to work
with /bin/sh. Here, I went the easy route, and assumed that
since things are Linux, we can use shell constructs that
aren't strictly portable to all /bin/sh implementations, so
long as they are portable to POSIX (and will thus work with
dash or busybox sh).
