ifconfig: print netmask in CIDR notation

Hi, printing the netmask in hex seems to be a historical artifact in ifconfig; I always wondered about it and I never got used to it. The following diff changes ifconfig output to print contiguous netmasks in CIDR notation. Non-contiguous netmasks will still be printed in full, tunnels will
