Allow `mwan3 interfaces` to get uptime via an internal function and
thus remove the dependency on rpcd for `mwan3 interface` calls.

Use "mwan3 use" to wrap a command with interface bindings so that you can
avoid the mwan3 rules and test behavior on a specific interface.
eg "mwan3 use wan ping -c1 1.1.1.1"
Additional binding arguments to the command will have their system
calls intercepted and ignored.
eg "mwan3 use wan ping -c1 -I tun0 1.1.1.1" will use the
device associated with "wan", rather than "tun0".

Rather than using a special mwan3 user to manage mwan3track's tracking
packets, this commit implements a small helper library to bind to
device and to set a fwmark so that the tracking packets can be routed
out of the correct interface.
This provides a consistent method for binding to a device rather than
relying on various packages potentially buggy implementations. For
example: #8139 and #12836
This helper issue also allows for more tracking methods to be added
even if they do not have a command line option to bind to device,
such as iperf3 (eg #13050).

start all mwan3mon and mwan3track instances on mwan3 start
if an interface is down when mwan3track starts, it waits
for a signal from the hotplug script to start
procd can then handle stopping all of the scripts when mwan3
is halted

improve startup and runtime performance by
1) moving common startup procedures out of hotplug script when called
from mwan3 start
2) reducing calls to iptables to check status of rules
3) consolidating iptables updates and updating with iptables-restore
4) do not wait for kill if nothing was killed
5) running interface hotplug scripts in parallel
6) eliminate operations in hotplug script that check status on every
single interface unnecessarily
7) consolidate how mwan3track makes hotplug calls
8) do not restart mwan3track on connected events
This is a significant refactor, but should not result in any breaking
changes or require users to update their configurations.
version bump to 2.9.0

If the date is changed by ntp the age value of mwan3 on ubus could jitter.
Use instead the uptime value from /proc/uptime which will not change during
system run.
