Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Some network interfaces will not be monitored by ethmonitor

  [Description]
  The is_interface() function in ethmonitor tries to match an interface to a 
list obtained from the 'ip' tool. It lists interfaces using the 'inet' family, 
which omits interfaces that don't have an IP address assigned.

  If the interface that we're looking for is e.g. a VLAN bridge that
  does not have an IP address, it won't show up in the listing and
  is_interface() will return false. ethmonitor will miss that interface,
  and it won't be available for monitoring.

  Upstream commits:
  - https://github.com/ClusterLabs/resource-agents/commit/40d05029ce0b 
  - https://github.com/ClusterLabs/resource-agents/commit/c0ac191c73f1

  [Test Case]
  1) Ensure there's a network interface without an assigned IP address. For 
example, virbr0-nic will be created automatically by uvt-kvm:
  # ip addr show dev virbr0-nic
  11: virbr0-nic: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel 
master virbr0 state DOWN group default qlen 1000
      link/ether 52:54:00:e9:5e:af brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

  2) Install pcs+arping and create a new ethmonitor resource with the target 
interface:
  # sudo apt update && sudo apt install pcs arping -y
  # pcs resource create p_nic ocf:heartbeat:ethmonitor interface=virbr0-nic op 
monitor timeout="10s"

  3) Debug-start ethmonitor resource and check for "Interface does not exist 
messages"
  # pcs resource debug-start p_nic
  Operation start for p_nic (ocf:heartbeat:ethmonitor) returned: 'ok' (0)
   >  stderr: WARNING: Interface virbr0-nic does not exist
   >  stderr: NOTICE: link_status: DOWN

  [Regression Potential]
  The regression potential is low, since we are relaxing the monitoring 
conditions for interfaces without an assigned IP address. The patches have been 
tested against Travis-CI before being merged upstream, and will be tested 
against autopkgtest for each target distro.
