Revert "Deprecate the network and staticroute scripts"
This reverts commit 5994e55937.
There are situations where these scripts can be useful, so I am bringing
them back. Also, I want to start discussions about simplifying the
OpenRC network stack.

| OpenRC Network Ideals | ||||
| --------------------- | ||||
|  | ||||
| The new style networking for OpenRC is very simplistic - provide a basic means | ||||
| of configuring static interface address and routes whilst allowing the | ||||
| possibility to run any command at any point. | ||||
|  | ||||
| In a nutshell, init.d/network is a wrapper around ifconfig(8) and | ||||
| init.d/staticroute is wrapper around route(8). | ||||
|  | ||||
| In the Perfect World (TM) ifconfig should be able to configure everything | ||||
| about the interface easily * . The BSD family almost get this right and Linux | ||||
| epically fails. | ||||
|  | ||||
| * Only static configuration, including link setup. | ||||
| For dynamic, static, IPv4LL, arping and per ssid IPv4 setup dhcpcd-5.x | ||||
| provides your needs. | ||||
|  | ||||
| It fails because there are many tools to do the same job and often have | ||||
| vastly different syntax where they could be similar. In other words, there | ||||
| is no coherence. | ||||
|  | ||||
| OpenRC-0.4.x and older (inc Gentoo baselayout-1) had a collection of scripts | ||||
| for each tool and allowed a script per interface. Over the years, this design | ||||
| has proven very hard to maintain as each user has their own idea of how | ||||
| things should work. Also, there were (and still are) race conditions. | ||||
|  | ||||
| So where do we go from here? | ||||
| Well, it's possible to use the new network scripts using the tools | ||||
| currently available. It's just harder as you have to know them and their | ||||
| documentation can be lacking at times. | ||||
| The correct end goal is a BSD style ifconfig tool. | ||||
| I've started work on it, but the project has stalled somewhat. | ||||
| It's display only right now and the source is not yet publicly available. | ||||
| If you have the skills and share the vision then contact me privately and | ||||
| we'll take it from there. | ||||
