Legacy ebtables-restore does not support COMMIT directive, so allow for
callers of xtables_restore_parse() to toggle whether it is required or
not.

In iptables, omitting COMMIT may be used for syntax checking, so we must
not add an implicit commit at EOF. Although ebtables/arptables legacy
does not support COMMIT lines at all, this patch allows them in nft
variants. If omitted, an implicit commit happens for them at EOF.
