Check and refactor SeedDB to support consolidated interface table
The Seed Database tool must be checked for dependencies to the old swport/gwport tables. Any such dependency must be refactored to support the new interface table, including the notion that modules are a compulsory dependency for an interface.

Whiteboard
A previous, quick code-review of SeedDB suggests that it uses forgetSQL solely for pulling lookup values from the database, not for updates. This could be an excellent opportunity to do a small refactoring to use Django's ORM. This may entirely rid us of the pesky forgetSQL dependency. If not, the forgetSQL models need to be updated as well :P
Other than that, I believe its involvement with the swport table is only related to seeding the cabling and patch tables. It might touch gwport in relation to prefix editing, but I doubt it.
