network: add option to keep the link down #355

Closed jamacku closed 3 years ago

Some interfaces like Open vSwitch bridges using the userspace datapath, needs the link to be kept down to avoid issues. Add a LINKSTATUS=[down|up] ifcfg parameter to add this functionality. If not specified, the link will default to up as before.
