mod_for_test_scripts: add backchannel interface support for shill

To use a backchannel interface, we need to configure the connection
manager to ignore that interface. shill uses a different syntax
for that command-line option, because base's command-line parser
doesn't support the option syntax flimflam uses.

This CL adds code to rewrite the part of flimflam.conf that holds
shill's configuration options.

BUG=chromium-os:23531
TEST=manual (see below)

Manual testing: ran flimflam and shill on test images. Verified
that the connection manager ran with the appropriate command line
flags in both cases.
