Description

Cloned from bz:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Sat-6.3 snap 9

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. configure network on the host, don't set ip address on the interface eth1
2. try to install dns and dhcp against this interface:

satellite-installer --scenario "satellite"\
--foreman-proxy-dns "true"\
--foreman-proxy-dns-forwarders "8.8.8.8"\
--foreman-proxy-dns-forwarders "8.8.4.4"\
--foreman-proxy-dns-interface "eth1"\
--foreman-proxy-dns-zone "sat63.example.com"\
--foreman-proxy-dhcp "true"\
--foreman-proxy-dhcp-interface "eth1"\
--foreman-proxy-tftp "true"\
--foreman-proxy-content-puppet "true"\
--foreman-proxy-puppetca "true"\
--disable-system-checks

Installer fails with a backtrace, the installer log contains:

[ERROR 2017-08-02 07:21:02 main] pick(): must receive at least one non empty value at /usr/share/foreman-installer/modules/foreman_proxy/manifests/proxydhcp.pp:6 on node sat63-qa-rhel7.example.com

Additional info:
This is a regression of http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/16942

The fix should be

$ip   = pick_default($::foreman_proxy::dhcp_pxeserver, inline_template("<%= scope.lookupvar('::ipaddress_${interface_fact_name}', '') %>"), '')

The friendly error messages are tracked in http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/12662, but thi BZ is just about the more accurate error in the logs

Expected results:
The logs contain info "Could not get the ip address from fact ipaddress_eth1"
