Laine Stump 258fb278f2 qemu: support live update of an interface's filter
Since we can't (currently) rely on the ability to provide blanket
support for all possible network changes by calling the toplevel
netdev hostside disconnect/connect functions (due to qemu only
supporting a lockstep between initialization of host side and guest
side of devices), in order to support live change of an interface's
nwfilter we need to make a special purpose function to only call the
nwfilter teardown and setup functions if the filter for an interface
(or its parameters) changes. The pattern is nearly identical to that
used to change the bridge that an interface is connected to.

This patch was inspired by a request from Guido Winkelmann
<guido@sagersystems.de>, who tested an earlier version.
