Bug description:
  when iptables got upgraded from 1.8.5-3ubuntu4 to 1.8.7-1ubuntu2 magic
  proxy stopped working in livecd-rootfs.

  It does very simple thing:

  iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m owner ! --uid-owner
  daemon -j REDIRECT --to 8080

  inside hirsute lxd container, with quite high privileges, in a bionic
  VM, running 4.15 kernel.

  With 1.8.5 above worked fine, with 1.8.7 somehow there was no outbound
  connectivity the very first http networking command after the above
  call would just hang indefinitely.

  However, if one does this instead:

  iptables -vv -t nat -S
  iptables-legacy -vv -t nat -S
  iptables -vv -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m owner ! --uid-owner daemon -j REDIRECT --to 8080

  somehow magically everything starts to work fine.

  weird.
