Avoid double appearing of cloned interfaces in the output
from list_net_interfaces() when network_interfaces=auto. Rationale: Since the auto case is special, the lesser evil had to be chosen among not adding cloned interfaces to _tmplist or removing duplicates from _tmplist after adding cloned interfaces. Since list_net_interfaces() must not use /usr/bin tools, the former "evil" appeared clearer and much more efficient. (See the PR audit trail for discussion.)
