Interface.get_config() was always a pure helper which exposed a "per interface
type" dictionary which was then fed by the caller to create interfaces by
iproute2 which required additional options during creation time.
Such interfaces had been:
* tunnel
* vxlan
* geneve
* macsec
* wifi
* macvlan / pseudo-ethernet
The code was always duplicated to convert from the VyOS CLI based get_config_dict()
to a dict which can be used to feed iproute2.
This path has been removed and we now always feed in the entire dictionary
retrieved by get_config_dict() or in the interfaces case, it's high-level wrapper
get_interface_dict() to the interface we wan't to create.
This also adds the - personally long awaited - possibility to get rid of the
derived tunnel classes for e.g. GRE, IPIP, IPIP6 and so on.
