Classify 'vnet' network devices

[aleasto]

One of these devices is created for every libvirt VM that is running:

<interface type="network">
  <mac address="52:54:00:a7:a2:6a"/>
  <source network="default" portid="7c98f5a6-53a4-4d70-8fa9-1fb8d2f313a3" bridge="virbr0"/>
  <target dev="vnet3"/>
  <model type="virtio"/>
  <alias name="net0"/>
  <address type="pci" domain="0x0000" bus="0x01" slot="0x00" function="0x0"/>
</interface>

$ ip -d link show vnet3
7: vnet3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master virbr0 state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether fe:54:00:a7:a2:6a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 1 allmulti 1 minmtu 68 maxmtu 65521
    tun type tap pi off vnet_hdr on persist off

In my libvirt configuration is see a single global bridge device and one tap device per VM.

While "Virtual Network Tap" is the more accurate description of the interface, perhaps it would be more useful to the user if we showed this as "Virtual Machine Network" or something like that?

I've decided to go for the more user-friendly name.
