Add basic ifconfig command for network interface management

Guillaume Gielly requested to merge (removed):ifconfig into master

Implements a minimal ifconfig commandline tool.

Allows users to view network interface details (e.g., IP address, netmask, etc.). Serves as an initial implementation; further changes may follow based on RFC decisions regarding system calls for resource attributes.

Future work :

  • Explore ways to access the actual MAC address of interfaces
  • Add the link status
  • Consider caching interface information for performance optimization
  • Add the loopback
  • Improve error handling and reporting

This is my first commit, so please be gentle.
