[PATCH manager/network/proxmox-ve-rs 0/4] Expose OSPF Network-Type option

Previously the network-type option on OSPF interfaces was set to either
point-to-point or broadcast, depending on if an ip address was configured on
the interface. This is not enough, as some users want to have a switched
network (e.g. switch) between their nodes, which calls for the
point-to-multipoint network type.

In order to uphold backwards-compatibility, make network-type an `Option`,
where `None` will be the "automatic" network-type selection we had before.
