Dan Prince 6f764d9119 dhcp-all-interfaces: correct ifquery return stmt
Corrects an issue in the config_exists function that could
cause duplicate interfaces to be configured on Ubuntu.

Previously we used 'return ifquery' directly which caused
a silent 'numberic argument required' error to go unnoticed.
This would also return 1 meaning a new interface would get
configured.

The new logic should handle things properly.

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.
