[PATCH v2] Add a header in ifcfg and nm keyfiles describing the owner of the files

[Ani Sinha]

A comment describing the source of writing the contents of the ifcfg and
network manager keyfiles (hyperv kvp daemon) is useful. It is valuable both
for debugging as well as for preventing users from modifying them.
