OpenStack image

Ok, I'm going to have to do this differently.  I can't synchronize
FreeBSD's dhclient app because it has diverged from both OpenBSD and
DragonFly's dhclient massively.  All three have features that the others
don't have.

What I have done instead is attempted to port the RFC 3442 support from the
FreeBSD dhclient into ours.  I have committed this to our master branch and
a snapshot image should automatically generate overnight, which you will be
able to find here.  It will be dated June 3rd or later when it generates.
Or you can compile it manually if you already have DragonFly running
somewhere.  It will need testing.
