net/ifconfig, net/iproute2: admin/oper state check functions
Provide consistent methods using iproute2/ifconfig to check operational and administrative up/down state of interfaces. This is not the same as ethtool's "Link detected" field, which is the state of the layer 2 medium. TODO: How to check operational state in BSD? Signed-off-by: Robin H. Johnson <robbat2@gentoo.org>
