/// Access to interface information on Linux is via netlink, a socket-based
/// method for transferring information between the kernel and user processes.
///
/// For detailed information about netlink interface, please refer to
/// http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netlink and RFC3549.  Comments in the
/// detectIfaces() method (towards the end of this file) provide an overview
/// on how the netlink interface is used here.
///
/// Note that this interface is very robust and allows many operations:
/// add/get/set/delete links, addresses, routes, queuing, manipulation of
/// traffic classes, manipulation of neighbourhood tables and even the ability
/// to do something with address labels. Getting a list of interfaces with
/// addresses configured on it is just a small subset of all possible actions.
