There is a problem with this code. dhcp_enabled is only valid for ipv4. From looking at ifcfg files that were generated before, I do not see IPV6_AUTOCONF related settings. So maybe we should set method only for ipv4 and not for ipv6.

If the user configures only ipv6, then we do not want to have a section with
method = manual for ipv4. method = manual without an IP address does not work. So I suggest that we set method = manual only after checking that ipv4 addresses were added. So maybe move this section a little below after call to process_ip_string_nm(). This function can return a specific value to indicate that address were indeed written to the if cfg/kefile. I am not sure what happens when dhcp_enabled is True and the user provides specific IP addresses.
