rc.inet1: Avoid de-/configuring ifaces with indexes >=MAXNICS
The code around MAXNICS currently only uses it to populate
first $MAXNICS elements of IFNAME array, which is later
used to match interface name to index used to access all
other arrays.
If you configure IPADDR[6], this code doesn't find a matching
entry in IFNAME but doesn't do anything about it. This works
by accident, because iteration variable "i" stays at "6" after
exiting the loop.
But when you configure IPADDR[7], it will still stay on "6",
and will use ...[6] values to configure that interface, which
is potentially damaging.
Better safe than sorry: let's check for this overflow and do
nothing, instead of potentially doing the wrong thing.
