[pve-devel] [PATCH installer] common: options: use more sensible fallback values for network options

[Christoph Heiss]

When no DHCP server is configured on the network and/or no DHCP lease
is received, the auto-installer falls back to Ipv4Addr::UNSPECIFIED -
which resolves to `0.0.0.0/0` - for the interface address, gateway and
DNS server. This is then written to /etc/network/interfaces and could
cause further issues after the installation.

At the same time, this also means that no interface name will be set,
which causes the low-level installer to write out an invalid
/etc/network/interfaces entry.
