Description
Currently we create the bootstrap address from whatever physical link the system is started with. For example, this is populated from the MAC of the data_link in the sled agent configuration. With the plan put forward in https://github.com/oxidecomputer/stlouis/issues/298, the host OS will populate several MAC addresses on the root devinfo node. Two are for the Chelsio NICs, and the remaining one is to be used to create the bootstrap address. This issue tracks creating the bootstrap address out that data.
