MTU: set interface mtu tap
This patch introduces standard command line 'set interface mtu' for setting the MTU for tap devices. It allows user to set the mtu in between 68 to 65535 bytes aligned to what linux kernel supports for tun/tap devices. Right now tapcli set the same MTU size for each tap interface. But it should be set and configure to per interface rather than per tap instance. Change-Id: I81b7f3ad95ca56d585907ff8f51d9935a428e01b Signed-off-by: Mohsin Kazmi <sykazmi@cisco.com>
