Fix Bug 5487 http redirect url address placed on the router gets blocked by

              local-zone's firewall when using Zone Based Firewall
* changed local zones INPUT and OUTPUT chain rules to allow all local-zone
  traffic on the loopback interface rather than using address 127.0.0.1 which
  was too restrictive and blocked certain traffic initiated from and going to
  local-zone itself. This is compliant with the Zone Concept and similar to
  what's done for other transient zones as well where rules are interface based
