🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Do not ignore failures when updating the persistent firewall configuration.

ignore_errors: yes can report success when /etc/sysconfig/iptables is missing, inaccessible, or unwritable, leaving the REJECT rules in place after reboot. Remove this flag; state: absent is already idempotent when the rules are not present.
