Subject: [PATCH] Eliminate the guesswork when attempting to determine the id
 of a newly created ng_eiface or ng_iface node.  The replacement approach at
 "ngctl mkpeer" invocation yields deterministic results, and reduces the
 spawned process pipeline at the same time, thus reducing the time / CPU
 cycles wasted on ng node creation.
