Revert "Fallback to persistent netifs names with systemd"

This reverts commit 8401290976.

We are reverting this because some users may want to use predictable
device names and may not even use Debian. However, after some
investigation we have found a couple of bugs in dhcp-all-interfaces on
Debuntu distros. The parent change corrects those bugs. Additionally new
Linux kernels emit "move" events to udev when interfaces are renamed to
their predictable name. Support this "move" in the dhcp-all-interfaces
udev rules. Making these changes appaers to produce functional images
for Debian users using predictable device names. If predictable device
names are not desired turning them off is straightforward and release
notes are updated to give users the info they need to do that outside of
this element.

The dhcp-all-interfaces element attempts to work with "predictable
interface names". During boot the name of the interfaces is changed from
ethX to the new scheme, for example enpXsX; depending on the Linux kernel
this move may be captured by udev as an "add" or "move" event. The
dhcp-all-interfaces udev rule has been updated to match against both
possible events. If you prefer to not use predictable names your image
builds can set DIB_BOOTLOADER_DEFAULT_CMDLINE with net.ifnames=0 or mask
the default policy with `ln -s /dev/null /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link`.
This process is documented by systemd:
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/
Note that this update reverts previous changes to disable predictable
interface names completely when using dhcp-all-interfaces. Predictable
device names were disabled in an effort to make dhcp-all-interfaces
function on Debian Bullseye, but this broke any users that wished to
use predictable device names. Instaed we make predictable device names
work on Debian Bullseye and allow users to disable predictable device
names should they choose to.
