Description: add ifenslave and vlan, needed by MAAS, required by Ante

Hi,

iproute2 suite of utilities, and specifically the ip command can do
vlans and network bonding.

Can MAAS use the modern / new commands?
Why are legacy commands being pulled onto the cloud-image?

iproute2 is in minimal, and thus guaranteed to exist even in the
smallest environments.

An excellent guide as to what iproute2 is capable of is available here:
http://baturin.org/docs/iproute2/

master=my-bond
ip link add $master type bond

master=my-bond
slave=eth0
ip link set $slave master $master

ip link add name eth0.110 link eth0 type vlan id 110

I would like to revert below commit.
