Name the two modules after their software: nftables and distribution

A module's identity is the software it is (ADR 0040). Two were named after the
job instead, and the job already had a name.

firewall installs the nftables package and runs nftables.service. The seat it
claims is the-packet-filter, which is correctly named for the role. Calling the
module firewall named neither the software nor the provision, and promised that
any firewall could sit there — the false genericity the naming rule forbids.

registry runs Distribution, the OCI reference implementation, and provides
artifact-store. So registry was a third name for a thing that already had two,
which is how one word ended up meaning the module, the software and the concept
in the same paragraph.

The capability stays firewall, and correctly: a capability IS a functionality, so
a node having one and fail2ban requiring one are both right. Only the module
moves.
