Bug #21518: "interface" fact not available on windows 2003

* Author: Georgi Georgiev

* Affected Facter version: 1.6.18
----------------------------------------
Facter does not report any interfaces on Windows 2003. Facter uses the "netsh
interface ip show interfaces" command to figure out the interfaces on the
machine. However, the regex does not work on Windows 2003 at all:
Windows 2008 output:
> netsh interface ip show interface

I should also note that on windows 2003, `netsh interface` refuses to run
unless the, normally disabled, "Routing and Remote Access" service is started.
Windows 2003 R2 output with "Routing and Remote Access" disabled:
> netsh interface ip show interface
The Routing and Remote Access Service is not currently running on the local
machine.
Please use 'net start remoteaccess' on the machine to start the service.
