When network discovery detects multiple IP addresses with the same SNMP sysName, the existing host's main interface IP address gets overwritten.
Steps to reproduce:
- Configure a discovery rule with:
Type: SNMP agent
SNMP OID: 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 (sysName)
Uniqueness criteria: SNMP sysName

- Have a device with multiple IP addresses that return the same sysName via SNMP
- Run the discovery rule
- Observe that the discovered host's interface IP address gets overwritten
Detected interfaces in 7.0.16

Main IP address gets overwritten in 7.0.17

Result:
Zabbix Server: 7.0.17
Previously working version: 7.0.16
Root cause appears to beZBX-25545changes to zbx_db_add_interface() function.
This was intended for autoregistration but affects network discovery as well.
