bond: have random dev address by default instead of zeroes
Makes more sense to have randomly generated address by default than to have all zeroes. It also allows user to for example put the bond into bridge without need to have any slaves in it. Also note that this changes only behaviour of bonds with no slaves. Once the first slave device is enslaved, its address will be used (no change here). Also, fix dev_assign_type values on the way.
