Don't use biosdevname for predictable network interface names
There are two ways of doing the predictable network interface names thing. The original biosdevname approach by Dell, and the newer scheme by systemd/udev, https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames/ .
Most distros have dropped biosdevname (including RHEL upstream, Fedora, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=965718 for issues with biosdevname and why it was dropped), and are nowadays using the udev naming convention.
RHEL 7, however, is a bit of a weird hybrid, in that in a default installation the udev naming is used, except if it's a Dell system, in which case biosdevname is used. This default logic can be overridden with the biosdevname=0/1 kernel command line arguments. See https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/networking_guide/sec-consistent_network_device_naming_using_biosdevname
For Warewulf, lets follow upstream and thus not force the use of biosdevname, and instead use the udev scheme as specified by net.ifnames=1 without the additional biosdevname=1 argument.
We were running into device name difficulties on a new Warewulf & CentOS 8 cluster while following the current docs, and removing the biosdevname=1 argument resolved the issue. Thanks @jabl for pointing this out and making this PR.
Closing this as the 1.3.x branch has not seen any activity for some time.
