There are no specific manpages for the -compat tools right now.

Writting such manpages is something I would like to discuss with upstream.
I think the best sollution by now is to simply redirect users to the originals.
For this, a dependency with the original tools is required.

It should be noted that such a dependency is not weird, since its very likely
that users of the iptables-nftables-compat package are triying to migrate
their ruleset, so they need the original tools anyway.

At runtime, the compat tools may load some modules (extensions) which are
owned by the iptables package.
