T4999: Backport vyos util dict_search_recursive
Backport "dict_search_recursive" from vyos.util 1.4 to 1.3 data = { 'interfaces': {'dummy': {'dum0': {'address': ['192.0.2.17/29']}}, 'ethernet': {'eth0': {'address': ['2001:db8::1/64', '192.0.2.1/29'], 'description': 'Test123', 'duplex': 'auto', 'hw_id': '00:00:00:00:00:01', 'speed': 'auto'}, 'eth1': {'address': ['192.0.2.9/29'], 'description': 'Test456', 'duplex': 'auto', 'hw_id': '00:00:00:00:00:02', 'speed': 'auto'}}} } dict_search_recursive(data, 'hw_id') will yield both '00:00:00:00:00:01' and '00:00:00:00:00:02' as generator object.
