Create /etc/sysconfig/network file

The installer doesn't create the mentioned file, which results in the NetworkManager not working when using Dom0 as netvm.

This turned out to be a very "nasty" bug.
Our kernel package did not generate modules.{block,drm,networking} lists, which are used by Anaconda scripts to put modules in installer initrd. So the installer image did not have any network drivers. Thus Anaconda did not detect any networking device on the machine and not created /etc/sysconfig/network

Fixed in: http://git.qubes-os.org/?p=smoku/kernel;a=commit;h=fa633487621281be9cbfc2d5870c96f7d10dadd4 and http://git.qubes-os.org/?p=smoku/anaconda;a=commit;h=f67209946378b16672e0a66dfe926783163ae4f4
