net: support network-config:disabled on the kernel commandline (#232)

Allow disabling cloud-init's network configuration via a plain-text kernel cmdline

Cloud-init docs indicate that users can disable cloud-init networking via kernel
command line parameter 'network-config=<YAML>'.  This does not work unless 
the <YAML> payload base64 encoded.  Document the base64 encoding
requirement and add a plain-text value for disabling cloud-init network config:

    network-config=disabled

Also:
 - Log an error and ignore any plain-text network-config payloads that are
   not specifically 'network-config=disabled'.
 - Log a warning if network-config kernel param is invalid yaml but do not
   raise an exception, allowing boot to continue and use fallback networking.
