Ben Nemec bf5af6155c Don't set the executable bit on dhcp-interface@.service

systemd doesn't like it when service files have the executable bit
so this causes it to spam the journal with messages like:

Configuration file /usr/lib/systemd/system/dhcp-interface@.service is
marked executable. Please remove executable permission bits.
Proceeding anyway.

Removing the executable bit from the install permissions should
eliminate those messages.

dhcp-all-interfaces

Autodetect network interfaces during boot and configure them for DHCP

The rationale for this is that we are likely to require multiple network interfaces for use cases such as baremetal and there is no way to know ahead of time which one is which, so we will simply run a DHCP client on all interfaces with real MAC addresses (except lo) that are visible on the first boot.

On non-Gentoo based distributions the script /usr/local/sbin/dhcp-all-interfaces.sh will be called early in each boot and will scan available network interfaces and ensure they are configured properly before networking services are started.

On Gentoo based distributions we will install the dhcpcd package and ensure the service starts at boot. This service automatically sets up all interfaces found via dhcp and/or dhcpv6 (or SLAAC).
