[netdevice] Add generic concept of a network device configurator
iPXE supports multiple mechanisms for network device configuration:
DHCPv4 for IPv4, FIP for FCoE, and SLAAC for IPv6. At present, DHCPv4
requires an explicit action (e.g. a "dhcp" command), FIP is initiated
implicitly upon opening a network device, and SLAAC takes place
whenever a RA happens to be received.
Add a generic concept of a network device configurator, which provides
a common interface to triggering configuration and to reporting the
result of the configuration process.
