Do you have an idea about better way to do that?
Maybe we could create something opposite to
virNetDevTapCreateInBridgePort(), e.g.
virNetDevTapReleaseInBridgePort() which would destroy tap device on
FreeBSD and do nothing on Linux?
But that will still require platform specific #ifdef's because checking
tap releasing feels like a little out of scope of configure checks.
