linux: let the kernel resolve the tun.dev %d template atomically

Browse Source 
Resolving the template in userspace (LinkList then TUNSETIFF) races with
concurrent instances: both can pick nebula0, and with multiqueue the loser
silently attaches as a second queue to the winner's device instead of
failing. TUNSETIFF natively substitutes a single %d via dev_alloc_name,
atomically and always allocating a fresh device, so keep the fail-fast
validation but pass the template through and read the resolved name back.

# For Linux: a single `%d` anywhere in the name is treated as a template and replaced with the
# lowest number that yields an unused device name (e.g. `nebula%d` becomes `nebula0`, then `nebula1`, and so on, `neb%dprod` becomes `neb0prod`).
# Only on Linux: `nebula%d` is the default if tun.dev is unset.
