Bug#224912: should check if IP address is well-formed

[Martin Michlmayr <tbm@cyrius.com>]

Package: netcfg
Severity: wishlist

I wanted to configure a static address and made a typo and wrote
"10.0.144".  netcfg didn't spot this at all, and only failed at the
end when bringing up the network, saying "Erorr while activating the
network" and nothing more.  I had no idea what was wrong, until I
noticed the silly typo.  Please make sure that the IP address is well
formed, and if it is not, complain.
