I'm not sure this is a good argument, users should not be forced into selections that are not required for an installation. |

I agree with the principle of minimalism, but I think that in 2026, the network, in most cases, meets the minimum requirements. |

Considering there is a fair amount of people installing it on VMs and such it may still be somewhat impactfull |

PR Description:
Users frequently forget to configure network during installation, resulting in no internet after reboot. And I think there are not many setups without a network :)
This PR makes the network selection item mandatory (same pattern as Disk configuration). Users must explicitly choose one of the options before Install becomes available.
A new "No network" option is added for users who intentionally want no network on the target system.
The network options list follows the enum order instead of alphabetical sorting, with "No network" at the bottom.
A recommendation hint is shown in the menu header.
