proxmox-network-interface-pinning is a tool for pinning network
interface names. It works by generating a link file in
/usr/local/lib/systemd/network and then updating the following files
by replacing the current name with the pinned name:

* /etc/network/interfaces
* /etc/pve/nodes/nodename/host.fw
* /etc/pve/sdn/controllers.cfg (IS-IS controllers)

In each case the tool creates a pending configuration file, that gets
applied on reboot (via pvenetcommit, pvesdncommit and
pvefirewallcommit respectively).

SDN and /e/n/i already have pending configuration files built in, so
the tool writes to them. For the host firewall we introduce a
host.fw.new file, that is currently only used by the
proxmox-network-interface-pinning tool, but could be used in the
future for creating pending configurations for the firewall stack.

There are still some places where interface names occur, where we do
not update the configuration:

* /etc/pve/firewall/cluster.fw - This is because we cannot update a
cluster-wide file with the locally-generated mappings. In this case a
warning is printed.

* In the node configuration there is a parameter for wakeonlan that
takes an interface as argument.

Otherwise all occurrences of interfaces or interface lists should be
included.

Example invocations of pveeth:

$ proxmox-network-interface-pinning generate --nic enp1s0

Generates a pinning for enp1s0 (if it doesn't exist already) and
updates the configuration file.

$ proxmox-network-interface-pinning generate

Generates a pinning for all physical interfaces, that do not yet have
one.

After rebooting, all pending changes made by the tool should get
automatically applied via the respective systemd one-shot services
(see the following commit).

Currently there is only support for a fixed prefix: 'nic'. This is
because we rely on PHYISCAL_NIC_RE for detecting physical network
interfaces across several places in our codebase. For now, nic has
been added as a valid prefix for NICs in pve-common, so that prefix is
used here.

In order to support custom prefixes, every place in the code relying
on PHYISCAL_NIC_RE (at least) would have to be reworked.
