A lot of derived classes from Interface implemented their own get_config()
method which more or less was the same everywhere. We also hat different
qualifiers like @staticmethod or @classmethod.
This is now changed to only have the @classmethod in Interface base class which
will return the necessary dictionary keys for the required interfaces. This
change is a mid reduction in lines of code which is always a very nice thing!

hostapd/wpa_supplicant will control the admin state of an interface, thus we
should re-add it to a bridge after we have launched those services.

Instead of using an Adapter pattern to make interfaces VLAN-aware, create a
derived class named VLANIf to represent a VLAN. This change was necessary to
eliminate mixed code in Interfaces class which was VLAN - free, but recently
gained some VLAN specific code for set_admin_state().
In addition this "autoresolves" the issue in T2894 as a bond vlan interface
will no longer change the lower interface.

Commit 627d1c704c83 ("ifconfig: T2057: explicity name state functions")
introduced a new API naming, unfortunately this was nod added for wireless
interfaces.

It is not sufficient to only place a wifi interface in adminsitrative down
state as hostapd could change the interface state again. If the wifi interface
is administratively disabled, hostapd or wpa_supplicant should not be started
at all to prevent anyone from messing arround with the admin state.

This class is required as wireless interfaces are created using iw instead of
ip from iproute2.
