[patch] /etc/devd/dhclient.conf changes for bridge

Submitted proposed patch in review D53051 to update /etc/devd/dhclient.conf to
enable bridge interface matching for dhclient devd rules.

When devd initializes the /etc/devd/dhclient.conf configuration for async DHCP,
it requires either a media-type match to Ethernet or 802.11 in the current
version. Unfortunately, bridge interfaces do not seem to have any media type
defined that devd can detect, so does not execute the service dhclient
quietstart $subsystem call.

This patch adds a case without a media-type match explicitly to handle bridge
interfaces. In my testings, lagg aleady identifies as an Ethernet interface
(IFM_ETHER), so works without a special case. This patch ONLY addresses
bridge(4) interfaces with async DHCP.
