nspawn: container network interface naming
systemd-nspawn now optionally supports colon-separated pair of host interface name and container interface name for --network-macvlan, --network-ipvlan and --network-interface options. Also supported in .nspawn configuration files (i.e Interface=, MACVLAN=, IPVLAN= parameters). man page changed for ntwk interface naming
