tun: Fix races in tun_set_iff
It is possible for two different tasks with access to the same file descriptor to call tun_set_iff on it at the same time and race to attach to a tap device. Prevent this by placing all of the logic to attach to a file descriptor in one function and testing the file descriptor to be certain it is not already attached to another tun device.
