Security groups can be bound to a specific interface. The notion of
this breaks down when considering the forward direction, since there
are two interfaces involved: incoming and outgoing, which can be
different depending on the kind of traffic.

With the current implementation, the firewall refuses to generate
rulesets with security groups that are bound to specific interfaces.
Check for this case explicitly and skip creating rules in the forward
chain when a security group bound to a specific interface is
encountered.
