Drop netifaces dependency #144

  1. Drop netifaces dependency 

    The netifaces library is no longer maintained, which is why we
need to drop this dependency.

There is only one place in which netifaces is being used, a
trivial function that retrives the mac address for a given ip
address.

Thankfully, we already have a cloudbase-init "get_adapter_addresses"
function that uses ctypes to call GetAdaptersAddresses, which
happens to be the same Windows function used by netifaces.

Worth mentioning that netifaces is the only compilable cloudbase-init
dependency that does not provide a wheel package.

Fixes: cloudbase#140
