Title:
  interfaces.template generation needs to include the hw address for
  usage on multi-nic Windows machines

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When using networks without DHCP enabled and "flat_injected" set to
  True, the interfaces template is injected in the associated instances
  or included in the config drive metadata.

  The template includes the interface name, based on a progressive
  numbering (eth0, eth1, etc). In case of multiple nics, there's no
  clear way to identify the interfaces in the guest OS if the actual
  interface naming differs, this is especially valid for Windows
  instances.

  Since the MAC address (hardware address) assigned to each vNIC
  identifies uniquely the interface, providing the mac address during
  the template generation solves the issue.
