This patch allows the setup of simple a single interface to be
automatically brought up and configured via DHCP on system startup.
The interface name can be set via a configuration option. This patch
does not support systemd-networkd, any complex network configuration should
be done via overlay of /etc/network/interfaces or the relevant networkd
configuration file

IIRC, comment does not support help message, but it could be
worthwhile to document somewhere how to do this in the systemd case,
without needing reading the git log ;-)

well, the answer is "the usual way, use overlays" and "read the man
page for networkd".
systemd in general has pretty good set of docs, and we don't document
most of the ways to customize your image. BR users are supposed to
know system configuration (we don't document /etc/network/interfaces)
so I personally think it's not really needed, but if you think it's
really necessary and you tell me where to add a note, I can write
something... I have a good understanding of networkd with my previous
attempt at network configuration

Do we really need a helper script to do this?
NETWORK_IFACES = $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/network/interfaces

Why two options? Just make the BR2_SIMPLE_DHCP_INTERFACE empty by
default (does nothing), and when non-empty, used as the DHCP network
interface.

That's... debatable. I think it's a bit long for inline, but it's
a matter of taste. I'll inline in simplify it (do everythin without
functions to shorten a bit)

I did it for better presentation in the menuconfig menu, I thought
one option to activate and then another one to set, rather than
an empty-by-default one was cleaner... but if you think a single
one is better it's easy to change...
I'll wait for more comments and submit a v2 when I have more feedback
