Changes from V1 to V2:

 - using INT_BUFSIZE_BOUND() to determine the length of the buffersize
for printing and integer into

 - not explicitly initializing static var threadsTerminate to false
anymore, since that's done automatically

Changes after V2:
  - removed while looks in case of OOM error
  - removed on ifaceDown() call
  - preceding one ifaceDown() call with an ifaceCheck() call

Since the name of an interface can be the same between stops and starts
of different VMs I have to switch the IP address learning thread to use
the index of the interface to determine whether an interface is still
available or not - in the case of macvtap the thread needs to listen for
traffic on the physical interface, thus having to time out periodically
to check whether the VM's macvtap device is still there as an indication
that the VM is still alive. Previously the following sequence of 2 VMs
with macvtap device

virsh start testvm1; virsh destroy testvm1 ; virsh start testvm2

would not terminate the thread upon testvm1's destroy since the name of
the interface on the host could be the same (i.e, macvtap0) on testvm1
and testvm2, thus it was easily race-able. The thread would then
determine the IP address parameter for testvm2 but apply the rule set
for testvm1. :-(
I am also introducing a lock for the interface (by name) that the thread
must hold while it listens for the traffic and releases when it
terminates upon VM termination or 0.5 second thereafter. Thus, the new
thread for a newly started VM with the same interface name will not
start while the old one still holds the lock. The only other code that I
see that also needs to grab the lock to serialize operation is the one
that tears down the firewall that were established on behalf of an
interface.

I am moving the code applying the 'basic' firewall rules during the IP
address learning phase inside the thread but won't start the thread
unless it is ensured that the firewall driver has the ability to apply
the 'basic' firewall rules.
