AIUI, we made the change to use iptables-nft as the default with F32.  We
also decided that existing iptables-legacy users shouldn't be moved to
iptables-nft during an upgrade.

However, I think that new installations are still defaulting to
iptables-legacy.  The group "Common NetworkManager Submodules" pulls in
`iptables` which seems to pull in iptables-legacy by default.

This feels like an oversight and should be fixed.  Is this correct?
