Mark the netmask and broadcast options as deprecated.

commit 13d3909658c6f8cbd8734dcee2e4055904a5112c

Use /sbin/ip instead of /bin/ip.
While Debian installs the ip command in /bin/, ifproute2 upstream
installs it in /sbin/, and some projects outside of Debian use ifupdown
with an unmodified installation of iproute2. Since Debian has a symlink
in /sbin/, we can just switch to iproute2's upstream installation path
unconditionally to make life easier for non-Debian users of ifupdown.
commit a8c260bd24b95a2d5e99db6c5e99ed465cf275ee
Author: Guus Sliepen <guus@debian.org>

Allow the MTU to be increased in inet6 stanzas.
The kernel has separate MTU settings for IPv4 and IPv6, since it is
apparently common that you want to use 1500 for IPv4 but something lower
like 1280 for IPv6, which might be necessary if IPv6 will be tunneled
somewhere between the endpoints and PMTU discovery is broken. When the
mtu keyword is used in an inet6 stanza, ifupdown only changed the
IPv6-specific MTU, which only has an effect if it is lower than the
interface's MTU. Change this so that if the MTU setting in the inet6
stanza is higher than the interface MTU, we raise the interface MTU.
commit 0b4ef227f623e81b8376793b015b5d8a82701490
Author: Guus Sliepen <guus@debian.org>
Date: Fri May 25 22:35:08 2018 +0200
Release 0.8.34
commit 19052e2ecb0a908428813b5bc25d5bd0283c5a18
Author: Guus Sliepen <guus@debian.org>
Date: Fri May 25 21:34:27 2018 +0200
Bring up VLAN interfaces in the same allow class as a parent interface.
This allows hotplug interfaces to be brought up along with their VLANs, for
example in this case:
allow-hotplug eth0 eth0.1
iface eth0 ...
iface eth0.1 ...
In that case, an ifup --allow hotplug eth0 will also ensure eth0.1 is
brought up. If no --allow class is specified, VLAN interfaces are not brought
up automatically.

Also buffer SIGHUP.
commit 25e5165e893e6b0384c19aa53ac46a955a570af9
Author: Guus Sliepen <guus@debian.org>

Buffer SIGINT and SIGTERM.
When we get either of those signals, just set a flag that gets checked
whenever we process an interface or a command. This allows for a more
graceful termination; in particular it will leave the state files in a
more consistent state.
After SIGINT or SIGTERM has been received once, the signal handler is
reverted back to the default handler.
