Michael Nitschinger 9ee6624fd1 Network: Allow to listen on virtual interfaces. ...

Previously when trying to listen on virtual interfaces during
bootstrap the application would stop working - the interface
couldn't be found by the NetworkUtils class.

The NetworkUtils utilize the underlying JDK NetworkInterface
class which, when asked to lookup by name only takes physical
interfaces into account, failing at virtual (or subinterfaces)
ones (returning null).

Note that when interating over all interfaces, both physical and
virtual ones are taken into account.

This changeset asks for all known interfaces, iterates over them
and matches on the given name as part of the loop, allowing it
to catch both physical and virtual interfaces.

As a result, elasticsearch can now also serve on virtual
interfaces.

A test case has been added which  makes sure that all
iterable interfaces can be found by their respective name.

Note that this PR is a second iteration over the previously
merged but later reverted #19537 because it causes tests
to fail when interfaces are down. The test has been modified
to take this into account now.

Closes #17473
Closes #19568
Relates #19537
