Revert "Always rename an interface to its name specified in config if no NamePolicy= is specified"
This reverts commit 55b6530b. This commit description says "Always rename an interface to its name specified in config if no NamePolicy= is specified", but it does much more: 1. It completely changes the meaning of NamePolicy=kernel. Before, it meant that an interface with type==NAMEPOLICY_KERNEL would not be renamed. After, the kernel name only works as a fallback, if no policy matches. 2. The "if no NamePolicy= is specified" part is not true at all, the interface will be renamed according to the specified NamePolicy=. After 55b6530b, the should_rename() function is named very misleadingly: it is only used to mean "respect kernel predictable name if no naming policy matches". Let's revert, and start with a clean slate. This fixes #11436.
