Add dhcp-ignore-clid configuration option

The idea of this option was already discussed years ago on the mailing
list:
https://dnsmasq-discuss.thekelleys.org.narkive.com/ZoFQNaGo/always-ignore-client-identifier#post4

In our production environnement, we discovered that some devices are
using 'client identifier' not unique at all, resulting on IP addresses
conflicts between several devices (we saw up to four devices using same
IP address).

The root cause is probably a buggy operating system/configuration of
decices, but this patch add a configuration workaround on server side
when fixing clients is impossible.

Thanks to Tore Anderson for spotting and diagnosing the bug.
Add --dhcp-ignore-clid. This disables reading of DHCP client
identifier option (option 61), so clients are only identified by
MAC addresses.
