Check for docker upstream iptables installation for proper error message
Metadata
Current evaluation
Enhancement to add docker iptables rule checking with proper error messages. Acknowledged by maintainer in April 2023, tracked as CRAFT-1683, no implementation yet.
Suggested action: keep open
Reason: This is a valid enhancement request (labeled Type: Enhancement) that was acknowledged by maintainer @mr-cal on 2023-04-18 with tracking via CRAFT-1683. The issue remains relevant as Docker/LXD iptables conflicts still exist (documented in docs/explanation/index.rst). No implementation has been done yet, but the problem is real and the suggestion to add early validation with helpful error messages is reasonable.

Issue body
It would be helpful for craft-providers to check if the iptables rules that docker installs is there as it applies to more than just docker as specified on https://github.com/docker/for-linux/issues/103 ...
craft-providers should do an early check and error out appropriately with a potential suggestion to fix it.
