[RFC 1/6] base-files: ucidef net dev altname, label and alias.

[Evan Jobling]

In addition to path, conduit and gro options.

Allow setting options for a label pass, in
case of conflicts with the path variable.

For example in the Firebox M300
default interface names are eth0-eth7
with eth3-eth7 being ports on a dsa switch.
eth3 and eth4 start out as being the conduit
interfaces.

Also allow for setting the altname and alias
in board.json for future implementation.
