From d3ead28d1391f1102e6e89de119226557f3fcce3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: zsdc <taras@vyos.io>
Date: Wed, 5 Jul 2023 14:56:05 +0300
Subject: util: T1797: Optimized sysctl helpers

- modified `sysctl_read()` to return the whole value
- modified `sysctl_write()` logic to return `True` only in case a value was
changed successfully
- added `sysctl_apply()` to apply a dictionary of values at once
