ipheth: remove incorrect devtype to WWAN
The 'wwan' devtype is meant for devices that require preconfiguration and *every* time setup before the ethernet interface can be used, like cellular modems which require a series of setup commands on serial ports or other mechanisms before the ethernet interface will handle packets. As ipheth only requires one-per-hotplug pairing setup with no preconfiguration (like APN, phone #, etc) and the network interface is usable at any time after that initial setup, remove the incorrect devtype wwan.
