Recommended update for yast2, yast2-network

This update provides fixes and enhancements for yast2 and yast2-network.

yast2:

- Add-on module: Do not escape characters like ":" in the path string. (bsc#966413)
- Added method to adapt old configuration of enslaved network interfaces. (bsc#962824)
- Use canonical path in save_y2logs. (bsc#1001454)
- Fix replacement of workflow modules. (bsc#1011869)
- Add a method to read the ID property from the /etc/os-release file. (bsc#1016004)

yast2-network:

- When an interface is enslaved in a bond the udev rule is modified using the bus_id
instead of the mac address but some multi-port cards could use the same bus_id. In
such cases also the dev_port is needed. Taking this in account the dev_port will be
added always when a udev rule based on bus_id is written. (bsc#1007172, bsc#1005721)
- Bridge handling has been improved: (bsc#962824)
- "NONE" is shown instead of 0.0.0.0 for old bridge configuration.
- The bridge master is shown in the enslaved interface.
- The interfaces overview is updated after a bridge is modified.
- The interfaces enslaved are not lost when save in a different tab.
- Do not crash with internal error stating undefined method when switching to "Hostname
/ DNS" tab when the system contains incorrect configuration of DHCLIENT_SET_HOSTNAME.
(bsc#1012581)
- New implementation of setting hostname via DHCP. User is allowed to set hostname via
particular interface or set a reasonable default value for all interfaces. (bsc#984890)
- Fixed the assignment of udev rules to Lan Items when a previous one does not exist.
(bsc#996879)
