Add a persist_mapping option to the mapping file
This adds the option to permanently rewrite the configuration so the aliases are used instead of the system name. This is useful where you have a variety of hardware and you want to have consistent device naming accross all platforms - this allows you to essentially rename the interfaces permanently so they match the abstracted nicN names. Note, this needs to be run with --cleanup or the old (now conflicting) configs will still be in place, and it may require a reboot before the changes are fully applied.

# This can be used with the -m option to override the

# The mapping can specify either a device name or a mac address
+# If --persist-mapping is specified, we write the device aliases
