device: gracefully handle device names exceeding IFNAMESIZ
Instead of truncating the device name when it exceeds IFNAMSIZ length;
let device_set_ifname return an error code and do not add the device
to the device list.
This avoids possible issues with device names becoming identical due the
truncation and as a result unexpected behavior.
Further let the different device types gracefully handle the error code
returned by device_init
