The only one unclear case is 4 (+netifrc +newnet) in this case stack that
is used is set by enabling required stack by rc-update. Case 3 means that
openrc doesn't provide default network stack and it's up to user which
stack to use (e.g. NM), so no problem here.
Also +netifrc flag is temporal to make update path clean and it may be
removed in future.
