    The `simple-init` element can now use NetworkManager instead of
    legacy scripts on Red Hat platforms.
simple-init: allow for NetworkManager support This plumbs through an "--use-nm" flag to glean which instructs it to setup interface bringup with NetworkManager rather than legacy network enablement scripts. In this case, install the NetworkManager package. In the non-nm case, also install the network-scripts for Fedora 29 -- this has stopped being installed by default (it's been deprecated since forever). As noted in the docs, this is currently really only relevant on the supported rpm distros which are using the ifcfg-rh NetworkManager plugin to effectively re-use old config files. However, NetworkManager has similar plugins for other platforms, so support can be expanded if changes are proposed.
