Description

It appears the GUI configuration doesn't probably figure out what interface is selected. For example,

No matter what I do in the GUI, lldpd's startup file has this...
/usr/local/sbin/lldpd -l -I 'ix2,ix3' -C 'ix2,ix3' -m '172.22.18.2'
...and lldp doesn't work.

After I manually changed it to:
/usr/local/sbin/lldpd -l -I 'lagg0.4089' -C 'lagg0.4089' -m '172.22.18.2'
...it works.

This was thoroughly tested on an XG7100 but I'm pretty sure the same issue applies to SG3100s

no such issue on SG-3100 with pfSense 2.4.4-p3

lldpd updated to version 1.0.4 on 2.4.5/2.5

tested on pfSense 2.5.0.a.20191226.0326 and 2.4.5.a.20191226.1422 (XG-7100) - works as expected

Still persist on at least XG-7100 and SG-1100 (pfSense 2.4.5, lldpd pkg 0.9.10)

on SG-1100 it creates incorrect lldpd.sh, which doesn't work:

/usr/local/sbin/lldpd -l -I 'mvneta0' -C 'mvneta0' -m '192.168.1.1'

but it works with:

/usr/local/sbin/lldpd -l -I 'mvneta0.4091' -C 'mvneta0.4091' -m '192.168.1.1'

it seems that we need to remove get_parent_physical_interface():

but needs testing with other interface types

tested on SG-1100 and XG-7100 - works as expected, lldpd uses the correct interfaces for integrated switches instead of the parent physical interfaces.
