LocalIp: support get interface flags #1315

Spellcheck's error is a noise. This is just a flag name, we can do nothing about it. |

I prefer { IFF_UP, "UP" } so that they take less spaces.

getifaddrs will return all interfaces in the local system which we already got. It might be heavier than creating a socket then calling a ioctl.
And manpages say this function is not a part of the standard, it could be different on other systems.
So, I think using ioctl and ifreq here may be enough.

But we have already called getifaddrs. Why not reuse its result?

Oh, getifaddrs already called.

Thanks for this advice, I'll change to reuse its result.

Each net interface has its flags. These flags show the interface and its IP's status/capabilities.
Flags have already been reported by 'ifconfig' and 'ip addr' commands:
Add the same capability to fastfetch:
I also added a new option '--localip-show-flags' to control whether getting interface flags (the default value is FALSE).
