Detailed Description

kickstart, at least, will need to be changed to support the new firewalld commands. We don't yet know what those will look like. However, firewalld will have backward compatibility to some degree. For the rest, we can either map the old commands to the new ones in pykickstart or have some sort of migration tool.

We may also want to add a personalization spoke to do firewall configuration.
