[pve-devel] [PATCH pve-manager 1/1] api/ui: show/return alternative interface names

in api listing for all interfaces, and in the GET call for an individual
interface.
If we don't show them, the user might be confused if the bridge ports
and interface names don't correlate.
enables the additional alternative names column in the network view on
the gui.
