We were telling users that setting shutdown_network=YES would shut down
the network interfaces during shutdown, but this was exactly the
opposite of what we were doing. The default was YES, which was keeping
the interfaces active.
This keeps the default behavior, but renames the setting to keep_network
which more accurately describes its function, and instructs users to set
it to NO if they want the network interfaces to go down.
This setting, already in use in newnet, allows the user to control
whether network interfaces are stopped when the system shuts down. By
default, under newnet, they are not, so I am making oldnet have the same
default.
A side-affect of this is that in the default configuration this fixes
bugs like the one below.

This is being done because these dependency changes caused a regression.
We will need to revisit the previously mentioned bug.

For most situations, the loopback interface can depend on root instead
of localmount, so this patch makes that happen. It also adds comments to
the net.example files explaining when a user might want to change this
and giving an example.
I would like to thank Robin Johnson for the original patch and suggested
examples.

Add support for optional fallback_routes_* variables in the network scripts.
This is similar to the fallback_route_* support in baselayout-1.
However, if you do not have fallback_routes set for an interface but you
do have routes set, that setting will be used, so you do not need this
variable unless you want the fallback routes to be different from the
primary routes.
