History
Dan Prince 01e25c378b ifquery doesn't exist on Fedora 
Updates dhcp-all-interfaces so that we avoid using
ifquery on Fedora to determine if an interface exists.

Adds a new config_exists function which simply looks for
the ifcfg config file on distro's that use netscripts.

Autodetect network interfaces during boot and configure them for DHCP

The rationale for this is that we are likely to require multiple network interfaces for use cases such as baremetal and there is no way to know ahead of time which one is which, so we will simply run a DHCP client on all interfaces with real MAC addresses (except lo) that are visible on the first boot.

The script /usr/local/sbin/dhcp-all-interfaces.sh will be called early in each boot and will scan available network interfaces and ensure they are configured properly before networking services are started.
