add basic interface alias support. for now (since we don't use ip in our network scripts yet), it adds :1, :2, ... alias interfaces this will change when we add support for the ip utility, but the config format will remain the same. example:

config alias     test
option interface lan
option ipaddr    192.168.1.1
option netmask   255.255.0.0
