Adds NicType.IWD as a third option alongside NM and NM_IWD: install iwd, write /etc/iwd/main.conf with EnableNetworkConfiguration=true and NameResolvingService=systemd, enable iwd.service + systemd-resolved.service. iwd handles DHCP itself and resolved picks up its DNS via the symlink, so no NetworkManager pulled in. Also fills in parse_arg cases for NM_IWD and IWD so config files round-trip both nic types. Assisted-By: Flint
similar pattern to .network files shipped in /etc/systemd/network
