device: delete software device when lose carrier and is controller

Fernando Fernández Mancera requested to merge ff/vlan_automatically_revive into main

Summary

We delete devices when the connection goes down and NetworkManager created the device earlier.

Software devices that are controllers like bond/bridge/team when configured to not ignore carrier are being deleted when deactivating the device. Software devices that are not controllers, shouldn't be deleted.
