Added section on Shorewall

For those who might find the solution provided in this wiki article unsatisfactory (for whatever reason), the creator of Shorewall (Tom Eastep) has written a nice article explaining how to use Shorewall on an OpenVZ host node to manage the host node, containers, and more... with quite a complex setup as an example. The article IS NOT an introduction to Shorewall for beginners, so some pre-existing knowledge and understanding of Shorewall may be required.
