We are seeing some issue when using IP addresses with inner values padded with
zeros. Such as: 2a01:75e0:0000:09b0::1/64
The kernel will process the ip properly but when we query the kernel again (with
iproute2 or netlink) it returns 2a01:75e0:0:09b0::1/64
Since we are doing string comparaison we are seeing failures. We are now
converting all ip address to a standard format using IPNetwork or IPAddress obj

I realized that user command's output wasn't on stdout but in a pipe
This commit fixes this case, the user cmd output is now on stdout.

If called with close_fds=True the subprocess module will try to close every fd
from 3 to MAXFD before executing the specified command. This is done in Python
not even with a C-implementation which truly affecting performances.
This patch aims to better handle the file descriptor used by ifupdown2. Either
by closing them after use or by setting the close-on-exec flag for the file
descriptor, which causes the file descriptor to be automatically
(and atomically) closed when any of the exec-family functions succeed.
With the actual patch all tests are passing, I can't think of any future issue
but if any a possible future modification might be to use the parameter
'preexec_fn', which allows us to set function which will be executed in the
child process before executing the command line. We can always manually close
any remaining open file descriptors with something like:
>>> os.listdir('/proc/self/fd/')
['0', '1', '2', ‘3’, etc..]
>>> for fd in os.listdir('/proc/self/fd/')
>>> if int(fd) > 2:
>>> os.close(fd)
This patch is also totally re-organising the use of subprocesses. By removing
all subprocess code redundancy.

When a user enters an interface name longer than 15 characters,
the error message is not clear about what the problem is.
warning: netlink: Numerical result out of range <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
This patch catches the error before netlink gets the call and
prints
error: the following interface names are too long: bond-xconnect.1006
