Testing Done: tested master and 2.5_br images with testifupdown2 suite and hand tested
This patch creates a json defaults file upon bootup
(which can be overridden by customer configs in /etc)
which the ethtool module in ifupdown2 will consult
when "link-x" configs are removed in order to restore
them to the initial settings used by the switch.
