Not critical, but trivial and nice to have for release.

Starting with 5.6.0 interface flags from ifconfig(8) output are available,
but the code creating those facts was too strict by loooking for decimal
values.

But flags values be hexadecimal, so the new fact did not appear for those.

Upstream already merged the fix below (incl. more tests);  result:

	 $ ifconfig vlan42 | grep flags
	 vlan42: a08843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,AUTOCONF6,AUTOCONF4 mtu 1500
	 $ facter networking.interfaces.vlan42.flags | jq -c
	-
	+["UP","BROADCAST","RUNNING","SIMPLEX","MULTICAST","AUTOCONF6","AUTOCONF4"]

OK for 7.9?
