the interfaces and call the CARRIER script if a link is already there.
This allows me to boot my notebook with the cable pluged and
fixes PR bin/26830.
intermitent changes on "volatile" interfaces based on if_spppsubr.c.
This interfaces used to cause ifwatchd to call the up and down scripts
with 0.0.0.0 addresses between entering PPP phase network and IPCP
completition.
Open the routing socket before this pass to close a small window where
we would miss messages at startup (and get state kept by the scripts
out of sync).

based interfaces. Note: all other interface types work the same as before,
and no names are hardcoded.
When a if_spppsubr.c based interface is marked IFF_UP, but has not yet
reached phase NETWORK (i.e. it didn't connect yet or authentication has not
yet completed) do not call the ip-up script for it on the initial pass
over all IFF_UP interfaces.
This fixes a race condition on startup when ip-up/ip-down are statefull
and need to be called pairwise (for example if ip-up adds and ip-down
removes a default route).
Monitors the routing socket for address changes of autonomous (kernel only)
interfaces (like PPPoE) and runs up/down scripts similar to what pppd
does for its interfaces.
