net: exclude OVS internal interfaces in get_interfaces (#829)
`get_interfaces` is used to in two ways, broadly: firstly, to determine the available interfaces when converting cloud network configuration formats to cloud-init's network configuration formats; and, secondly, to ensure that any interfaces which are specified in network configuration are (a) available, and (b) named correctly. The first of these is unaffected by this commit, as no clouds support Open vSwitch configuration in their network configuration formats. For the second, we check that MAC addresses of physical devices are unique. In some OVS configurations, there are OVS-created devices which have duplicate MAC addresses, either with each other or with physical devices. As these interfaces are created by OVS, we can be confident that (a) they will be available when appropriate, and (b) that OVS will name them correctly. As such, this commit excludes any OVS-internal interfaces from the set of interfaces returned by `get_interfaces`. LP: #1912844
