kernel: load r8169 network module at boot time
This allows the network interface naming to be stable, free from any
possible interaction from external USB network devices that might
claim usb* interface names.
(This was a real problem I encountered with a nanopi R6S device and
an external rtl8152 usb3 network controller - the USB controller would
claim the eth1 name, causing much confusion).
