Improvement idea for shorewall.conf and .annotated:

shorewall-4.4.12 depreacated following options:
LOGRATE=
LOGBURST=

I think all deprecated options should be moved to LEGACY section at the
bottom of the shorewall.conf or completely removed from default config.

There is no idea in carrying them in default config in fact. They are
deprecated and should not be used - if they are still documented in
shorewall.conf as valid options people will use them instead of using
new LOGLIMIT= - and I'm sure these aren't only legacy options there...

Deprecated and legacy options shouldn't be in default config files at
all imho. They can be in man page but not in default config.

I had an idea that deprecation means option is deprecated, legacy and
should not be used any more...

Adding them to configs does opposite.
