update ifconfig.sh [v9_16]

Mark Andrews requested to merge 3061-ifconfig-sh-down-messes-up-loopback-interfaces-v9_16 into v9_16
  • make it harder to get the interface numbers wrong by using 'max' to specify the upper bound of the sequence of interfaces and use 'max' when calculating the interface number
  • extract the platform specific instruction into 'up' and 'down' and call them from the inner loop so that the interface number is calculated in one place.
  • calculate the A and AAAA address in a single place rather than in each command
  • use /sbin/ipadm on Solaris 2.11 and greater

(cherry picked from commit abfb5b11)

Closes #3061 (closed)
