poky-qemu-internal: Support use of a preconfigured tap device

This patch makes poky-qemu-internal check for the existence of an
available preconfigured tap device before running poky-qemu-ifup to
make a new one.

Locking is handled with a lockfile in /tmp/qemu-tap-locks/.  This uses
the lockfile utility, so that needs to be present on the host.  On
exit, this script removes the lock file so that the tap device may be
reused.
