[SRU] Package fails to install when the default route is through an aliased/tagged interface

[Raphaël Badin]

[Impact]
 * Cannot install maas-region-controller if the default inet route is through an aliased interface.

[Testcase]
 * Install maas-region-controller when the default inet route goes through an aliased interface

[Regression Potential]
 * Minimal; updated regexes to determine interface names -- new tests added that pass for both non-aliased and aliased interfaces. Also installed with non-aliased interface and succeeded.

No handlers could be found for logger "metadataserver"

The source of the failure is that the default route goes through an aliased interface.
