Fix kube-proxy to use proper iptables commands for IPv6 operation
For iptables save and restore operations, kube-proxy currently uses
the IPv4 versions of the iptables save and restore utilities
(iptables-save and iptables-restore, respectively). For IPv6 operation,
the IPv6 versions of these utilities need to be used
(ip6tables-save and ip6tables-restore, respectively).
Both this change and PR #48551 are needed to get Kubernetes services
to work in an IPv6-only Kubernetes cluster (along with setting
'--bind-address ::0' on the kube-proxy command line. This change
was alluded to in a discussion on services for issue #1443.
fixes#50474
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
This change modifies kube-proxy so that it uses the proper commands for iptables save and
iptables restore for IPv6 operation. Currently kube-proxy uses 'iptables-save' and 'iptables-restore'
regardless of whether it is being used in IPv4 or IPv6 mode. This change fixes kube-proxy so
that it uses 'ip6tables-save' and 'ip6tables-restore' commands when kube-proxy is being run
in IPv6 mode.
