vmm: Allow IP configuration on named TAP interfaces

This commit changes existing behavior of named TAP interfaces.
When booting a VM with configuration for a named TAP interface,
cloud-hypervisor will create the interface and apply a given
IP configuration to that interface. If the named interface
already exists on the system, the configuration is NOT overwritten.

Setting the ip and netmask fields in a tap interface configuration
for a named tap interface now works by handing this configuration
to the virtio_devices::Net object when it is created with a name.

This commit also touches net_util to make sure that the ip configuration
of existing TAP interfaces is not modified with ip or netmask handed to
open_tap.
