Fixes the crash reported in Bugzilla #1131 where a malformed parameter that specifies the table option during a restore can create an invalid pointer. It was discovered during fuzz testing that options like '-ftf' can cause a segfault. A parameter that includes a 't' is not currently filtered correctly. Improves the filtering to: Filter a beginning '-' followed by a character other than '-' and then a 't' anywhere in the parameter. This filters parameters like '-ftf'. Filter a beginning '--t'. Because the getopt_long function allows abbreviations, any parameter beginning with '--t' will be treated as '--table'. As no other iptables option begins with a 't' this won't filter out other options.
