Ignore:
- not-an-iterable - false possitives for asyncio coroutines
Ignore all the above in qubespolicy/__init__.py, as the file will be
moved to separate repository (core-qrexec) - it already has a copy
there, don't desynchronize them.
After lot of testing it does not work properly. Could do something more
sophisticated but since calling save() is safe and probably lightweigth it is
not worth probably.
When some expiring rules are present, it is necessary to reload firewall
when those rules expire. Previously systemd timer was used to trigger
this action, but since we have own daemon now, it isn't necessary
anymore - use this daemon for that.
Additionally automatically removing expired rules was completely broken
in R4.0.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#1173
Expired rules are skipped while loading the firewall. Do that also when
such rules expired after loading the firewall. This applies to both
Admin API and actually applying the rules (sending them to appropriate
VM).

In the end firewall is implemented as .Get and .Set rules, with policy
statically set to 'drop'. This way allow atomic firewall updates.
Since we already have appropriate firewall format handling in
qubes.firewall module - reuse it from there, but adjust the code to be
prepared for potentially malicious input. And also mark such variables
with untrusted_ prefix.
There is also third method: .Reload - which cause firewall reload
without making any change.

There is a problem with having separate default action ("policy") and
rules because it isn't possible to set both of them atomically at the
same time.
To solve this problem, always have policy 'drop' (as a safe default),
but by default have a single rule with action 'accept'
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#2869
First part - handling firewall.xml and rules formatting.
Specification on https://qubes-os.org/doc/vm-interface/
TODO (for dom0):
- plug into QubesVM object
- expose rules in QubesDB (including reloading)
- drop old functions (vm.get_firewall_conf etc)
