[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH v3] [Kimchi 1/8] Changing network API 'interface' to array: docs and API

From: Daniel Henrique Barboza <dhbarboza82 at gmail.com>

Changed docs/API.md, i18n.py and API.json to reflect the new API.

interfaces[0] (the first element of this array) will have the
same effect as the former 'interface' parameter.

This change is necessary to better adapt the backend to networks
that can be created with more than one interface.
