May I suggest a small change before we do this?

Right now, netcfg and netctl share /etc/network.d/ as common directory
for their configuration. This complicates the migration. Can we use
something new and more consistent with usual naming schemes? For
example, systemd uses /etc/systemd/, udev uses /etc/udev/, and so on. I
think that /etc/netctl/ is the best choice here.
