device: bind the generated loopback connection to 'lo' interface
It is useful to bind the loopack connection to the loopback interface,
and it also allows activating it.
$ nmcli con up lo
Else "Error: no device found for connection 'lo'" is returned, because
connection_compatible() in libnm-glib/nm-device-generic.c wants the
connection to have an interface-name set.
