This follows the similar commit for the TUI installer, but as the
validation here was in accordance to the one in pve-common, only
adapts the error-message (and affected test-cases).
Fixes: 2033a35 ("sys: net: pinning: make interface name checks stricter")
Reported-by: Robert Obkircher <r.obkircher at proxmox.com>
