Summary: provide a way to get initial interface name

keep original name, make ifconfig print it
Once the interface is renamed (e.g. using `ifconfig <if> name <name>`), there
doesn't seem to be an easy way to get the original (physical) device name
corresponding to the interface (at least, I wasn't able to find one).
Keep the original interface name, provide SIOCGIFNAME, and make ifconfig print
the devname if it differs from current interface name.
