Subject: [PATCH 1/2] call aug_load() at most once per second

Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1268382

Previously, netcf would call aug_load() at the start of each public
API call, and rely on augeas quickly determining if the files needed
to be reread based on checking the mtime of all files. With a large
number of files (i.e. several hundred ifcfg files) just checking the
mtime of all files ends up taking quite a long time; enough to turn a
simple "virsh iface-list" of 300 bridges + 300 vlans into a 22 second
ordeal.

With this patch applied, netcf will only call aug_load() at most once
every second, resulting in runtime for virsh iface-list going down to
< 1 second.

The trade-off is that the results of a netcf API call could be up to 1
second out of date (but only due to changes in the config external to
netcf). Since ifcfg files change very infrequently, this is likely
acceptable.

(cherry picked from commit 9b5f4eb57af28a604cd7ac8b2c1be9e49f0b517d)
