X Do not recreate slaptapX-* on every idempotent `slapos node instance` run
To run tapsplit we use plone.recipe.command with both command and update-command set to `tapsplit ...`. But tapsplit, when run, fully recreates and reinitializes subtap interfaces, which leads to interfering with running enb because subtap interfaces, that enb started to use, are removed. This is not desirable behaviour. What we need: 1) create subtap interfaces only once and keep them stable 2) until configuration changes which should lead to * subtaps recreated, and * enb restarted Carefully reading plone.recipe.command documentation shows: command Command to run when the buildout part is installed. update-command Command to run when the buildout part is updated. This happens when buildout is run BUT THE CONFIGURATION FOR THIS BUILDOUT PART HAS NOT CHANGED. (emphasis mine) So the fix looks to be to make update-command noop - this fulfills requirement "1". For "2" - I've verified that when configuration changes, e.g. number of RU changes, buildout reinstalls [vtap] section from scratch, and it also should restart enb, because generated enb.cfg changes. So the fix is fully correct because it satifies all needed requirements.
