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.

This reverts commit 806f35b5856c3f8dae634718a6a9e82cc90bb63a.
Unfortunately this did not work our in the attempt to bridge a station to a
bridge "brX" interface. Also adjusting the wireless interface during operation
cause several exceptions and the feature is removed again as it was never in any
production system.

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.
