Bug Description

"brctl" has been deprecated in some Linux distros (CentOS/RHEL [1], Fedora, Ubuntu..). The package that contains it, bridge-utils is deprecated in favor of the bridge command in iproute2 [2]

Several OpenStack projects have already moved away from it [3]

We should replace the use of brctl in the Container driver with iproute2 commands or
the pyroute2 library where possible.
