[PATCH] iptables-compat: homogenize error message

From: Arushi Singhal
Date: Sun May 27 2018 - 09:09:22 EST


There is a difference between error messages in iptables and
iptables-compat:

#sudo iptables-compat -D INPUT 4
iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.

#sudo iptables -D INPUT 4
iptables: Index of deletion too big.

Now, will show same error message.
