networkd ignores errors in reading driver through ethtool. The kind of
network interface is retrieved through netlink, and networkd checks
checks many failures. So, using Kind= should be safer.
No functional change, just for safety.
Arguably, CC0 is just fine for examples since they are not code. But it's
easier to be consistent and just use MIT-0 for all "documentation". Thus,
the license is changed similarly code examples under man/.

This changes the default .network files we ship for nspawn containers to set
EmitLLDP=customer-bridge in order to allow propagation of the LLDP packets
across bridges. This is useful so that "networkctl status" shows all peers
connected to a virtual container network, collecting this data via LLDP. This
is safe since the default configuration for these interfaces does not bridge
these links to external interfaces, but relies on IP routing for this.
'LinkLocal' was renamed to 'LinkLocalAddressing' in:

networkd: .network - rename LinkLocal to LinkLocalAddressing
..but apparently the network files were not updated. Fix this.
This allows both IPv4 and IPv6 link-local addresses to be enabled or disabled. By default
we still enable IPv6LL and disable IPv4LL. The old config option is kept for backwards
compatibility, but removed from the documentation.
This introduces am AddressFamilyBoolean type that works more or less
like a booleaan, but can optionally turn on/off things for ipv4 and ipv6
independently. THis also ports the DHCP field over to it.
If there are v4 or v6 specific options we can keep those in separate sections,
but for the common options, we will use only one.
Moreovere only use DHCP=[yes/both|no/none|v4|v6] to enable or disable the clients.
When starting systemd-nspawn with --network-veth, we create a veth device called
host0 in the guest. Pick up on this and start a dhcp client on it. We will also
pick up host0 netdevs created by other containers should they chose to use the
same name.
