luci-app-upnp: Faulty dependency on miniupnpd-iptables

[Ashus]

Maintainer: OpenWrt LuCI community
Environment: OpenWrt 23.05.0-rc2

Description:

This package depends on outdated package miniupnpd-iptables and doesn't take miniupnpd-nftables as viable replacement. Obviously iptables has been replaced by nftables in OpenWRT recently and miniupnpd-iptables doesn't work properly anymore. By default luci-app-upnp should come with miniupnpd-nftables.

To temporarily fix this, I need to call:

opkg remove miniupnpd-iptables --force-depends
opkg install miniupnpd-nftables

The ptoblem is 'provides' dependencies being selected based on being 1st in alphabet, not technical merit.
miniupnpd is gotten from -iptables not -nftables variant
then iptables comes from -legacy ipo working -nft kind.
If you instal either non-default provider it goes ahead correctly.

Luci probblems go to ../luci btw, just that i dont see one here.
