ifupdown2 used /var/tmp/network/ to store its state file
upstream users reported that when /var/tmp is not mounted
before network configuration ifupdown2 fails. We now let
user define which location they want to use for the state
file.

In linux its possible to assign an ip address to a vlan-aware bridge
For some use cases is it useful to restrict users from configuring ips on
bridges VA. This patch will let admins and distributions decide if it is
necessary to warn the user in such case.
The patch introduces a new configuration variable in:
/etc/network/ifudpown2/ifupdown2.conf
vlan_aware_bridge_address_support: yes|no|on|off|0|1 (default to yes)
[8:30:41] root:~ # cat /etc/network/ifupdown2/ifupdown2.conf | grep "vlan_aware_bridge_address_support"
[8:30:43] root:~ # ifquery bridge
auto bridge
iface bridge
bridge-ports swp1
bridge-vlan-aware yes
address 10.10.10.10
[8:30:46] root:~ # ifup bridge --syntax-check
[8:30:52] root:~ # echo $?
0
[8:30:54] root:~ # echo "vlan_aware_bridge_address_support=no" >> /etc/network/ifupdown2/ifupdown2.conf
[8:31:11] root:~ # ifup bridge --syntax-check
warning: bridge: ignoring ip address. Assigning an IP address is not allowed on bridge vlan aware interfaces
[8:31:14] root:~ # echo $?

branch without history.
The major changes are:
- repackaging
- cleanup the directory tree
- rewritte setup.py to allow install from deb file or pypi (pip install)
