      .Change `os-net-config` provider to `nmstate`

      In previous RHOSO releases, Red Hat did not support `NMstate` as the `os-net-config provider`.
      It is now supported but the default configuration sets the `os-net-config` provider to `ifcfg`.

      The parameter is `edpm_network_config_nmstate`. The default value is `false`. Change it to `true` to use the `nmstate` provider unless a specific limitation of the `nmstate` provider requires you to use the `ifcfg` provider.

      For more information, see "The nmstate provider for os-net-config" in the guide link:https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_openstack_services_on_openshift/18.0/html/planning_your_deployment/index[Planning your deployment]

      The os-net-config cli supports -p <provider> argument. If the provider is not supplied the default one will be nmstate. The default provider shall be reverted to ifcfg.

       

      Due to several significant issues with NMstate, we are unable to use it as the default provider. We need to communicate this as a known issue, advising deployment with the non-default ifcfg-provider.
