ISSUE
Interface Description not updated properly in General Settings / Description when add/creating new interface in Suricata (by pressing “+” button at the right):
When page first time loaded, the Description field are pre-filled by Inreface name (taked from Interfaces / General Configurateion page from Description field).
AFTER ANOTHER INTERFACE from drop-down list SELECTED , the DESCRIPTION PRE-FILLDE BY BSD INTERFACE NAME (LAN, WAN, OPT1, OPT2,…) and not the Inreface name (taked from Interfaces / General Configurateion page from Description field).
P.S.
Also would be good after first page loading AUTOMATICALLY take focus and select all text in Description field.

Similar behavior as seen with Snort (#15334). Differences are:
- When you change the dropdown selection of an interface while adding one in Suricata, the Description changes to the appropriate interface's BSD name. Still not linked to the user-assigned interface name, however.
- If you delete the Description in Suricata, it won't automatically add the user-assigned interface name like Snort does. It fills in the BSD name. For example, select the GUESTWIFI interface, delete Description: OPT1, click Save. OPT1 is still what's shown in the Interface Overview's Description column.
