Set MTU value for any interface via AppleScript

I wish you had posted this just a few months ago! I admin a network that, until recently, used a Sonicwall router that exhibited a very strange bug: When Mac clients connected to it, they would have to use a non-standard MTU setting. Sonicwall gave me a startup script that worked, but it was annoying. This would have been much easier. Oh well. I ended up replacing the sonicwall, but I'll keep this in my back pocket now.
