Added inst.copy_network to kernel cmdline and config server no-auto-default  (#2291)

## Problem

The network configuration is a crucial part of the installation process.
In some cases it is even required to start the installation. The problem
is that, in some cases, the network configuration used during the
installation could differ to the one wanted in the target system.

It will be nice to be able to configure completely the "picture" of the
network after the installation as we started to design in YaST but as a
primary step at least would be nice to select if the installation
network configuration should be kept or not allowing to disable the copy
of the connections completely. Currently that is not possible and the
running and persistent configuration are always copied to the target
system as well as we probe DHCP over all the ethernet devices even when
there is some explicit configuration given.

## Solution

We proposed some changes in the current behavior. 

First of all, only the persistent configuration will be copied to the
target system (default), this copy can be omitted using the
`inst.copy_network=0` kernel cmdline argument although we are
considering to define it as an enum allowing `none, persistent, all and
maybe a comma separated name of connections` but just keep it simple by
now only supporting 0 or 1.

During the boot process **(dracut)**, if an explicit **NetworkManager**
configuration is given through the **'ip='** kernel cmdline option then
the running configuration will be copied persistently before switching
the rootfs and we will also set the **no-auto-defaul... (continued)
