Description

I've added code that allows for setting a firewall rule to IPv4+IPv6

Limitations:
- only allows tcp/udp and icmp
- no icmp types
- no gateways or groups

Considering locking it down further to just rules with aliases.
Current issue is that when one selects WAN address, it just adds the v4 WAN address. Not both. Might need more logic in filter.inc

Seems to work so far, filter.inc code needs to duplicate rules by address families to work for addresses, reply-to and gateways.

I can confirm this is working. Now if only you could mix IPv4 and IPv6 within aliases.

Thanks. You can mix v4 and v6 within aliases, we do extensively on our production networks. If there's a scenario where you can't, please post to the forum or mailing list so we can review.
