    Deprecated support for Windows OS
    
    As was discussed in Neutron team meeting [1], we are going to deprecated
    support for running Neutron on Windows OS in 2023.2 cycle and remove it
    in 2024.2.
    This decision was made due to the fact that the only company who was
    behind Winstackers project and was maintaining this Windows support in
    Neutron is no longer interested in maintaining it [2].

Title:
  Remove netifaces dependency from neutron

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  According to email from Takashi [1] netifaces was archived some time ago. We should remove usage of it in Neutron.
  It seems it's only used in windows ip_lib module [2] which isn't tested almost at all in our ci.
