    The ``simple-init`` element will now default to using NetworkManager
    for CentOS and Fedora platforms.  For CentOS 8 and Fedora, the
    ``DIB_SIMPLE_INIT_NETWORKMANAGER=0`` option is no longer supported.
simple-init: default to NetworkManager for CentOS and Fedora NetworkManager with simple-init has proven to be stable in OpenStack infra, switch to it by default for CentOS and Fedora. For CentOS 8 and Fedora, add a check to make it the only option. Thus only CenOS 7 remains optionally using the legacy scripts; this is likely not used anywhere (infra is really the primary user, where NetworkManager is already used); we can likely remove this variable (and hence path) in a future cleanup. In the setup, remove rhel7 element which was never really tested. Reorganise the fallthrough to call out the default paths as doing nothing.
