netback: change xnb naming convention

Description

netback: change xnb naming convention

Current FreeBSD netback names the interface with xnb<device unit>, but
this is not suitable for usage with the Xen toolstack, which expects
something similar to <prefix><domid><handle>. In order to solve this,
change the netback naming convention to use xnb<domid>.<handle>.
