vyos.util: add common helper to load kernel modules
l2tpv3, wireguard, wirelessmodem, nat all require additional Kernel modules
to be present on the system. Each and every interface implemented their own
way of loading a module - by copying code.
Use a generic function, vyos.util.check_kmod() to load any arbitrary kernel
module passed as string or list.
