wired networking should work by default, even if not connected at install time

The gist of this bug is, if the user installs Fedora and doesn't have
(wired) ethernet connected at the time of installation, onboot=no and
therefore on any subsequent boot, the network does not come up. A
separate GNOME bug is that even if the user manually turns on that
wired connection, it isn't a sticky setting. So networking is off
again the next reboot. The trick is to find the totally obscure and
buried option for the wired device to connect automatically.

This bug doesn't piss me off the way it did back in 2013 when I filed
it, because I know the work around. But this is still a Top 10 Most
Asinine Bug. Amusingly, wireless connections don't have this behavior,
even though they're in the realm of 8000% more risky even when making
a manual+conscious connection. Whereas when I take a physical plug and
stick it into the jack, it's a considerable WTF moment when that
connection doesn't work until I intervene further, and doesn't work
yet again on a reboot until I intervene yet again.

I can kinda sorta almost understand server folks differing on this
(even though I find it specious for various reasons) but Workstation
really shouldn't behave this way. It is not an easy work around, at
all, when the user doesn't don't know about it. And in no sane world
should they need to know about it. And even when they do know about
it, it's always a *sigh* "oh yes, that" moment. So from every
perspective I see it as a negative and no benefit.

Thanks,
