Add TCP port 8443 to prerequisites for Discovery (#4748)
For sending reboot or kexec commands to discovered hosts, a TCP connection is established from the Discovery Proxy to the discovered host on port 8443. Refs: https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-discovery-image/blob/9bb40867bba5c3c97dd6c76e4adc483f1babc8fa/README.md?plain=1#L28-L29 Refs: https://github.com/theforeman/smart_proxy_discovery/blob/3dc2193050f67f3a644775749aa3fa32c73b487f/settings.d/discovery.yml.example#L6 (cherry picked from commit d16a763)
