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.

But make auth-server required when any auth-zones are defined.
The "glue record" field in auth-server is needed to synthesise
SOA and NS records in auth zones, so the --auth-server has to
be specified. If makes sense, however to define one or more
auth-zones that appear within the normal recursive DNS service
without actually acting as an authoritative DNS server on
any interface. Hence making the interface field optional.
The option was already described in the original manual page but was not
replicated in the french translation.

The use of "peut-être" should be spelled "peut être" (without the
hyphen) unless it can be replaced by "sans doute".
It is roughly the same difference between "maybe" and "may be".
As for "doit-être", it should always be spelled "doit être".

Various typos were present along with spelling mistakes and grammar
errors. Some sentences were missing a few words to be easily
understandable.
Many of them probably remain though.

Adds option to delay replying to DHCP packets by one or more seconds.
This provides a workaround for a PXE boot firmware implementation
that has a bug causing it to fail if it receives a (proxy) DHCP
reply instantly.
On Linux it looks up the exact receive time of the UDP packet with
the SIOCGSTAMP ioctl to prevent multiple delays if multiple packets
come in around the same time.
It is currently only possible to let the TFTP server serve a different
folder depending on the client's IP address.
However it isn't always possible to predict what the client's
IP address will be, especially in situations in which we are not
responsible for handing them out (e.g. proxy dhcp setups).
Extend the current --tftp-unique-root parameter to support having a
separate folder per MAC address instead.
The current --server syntax allows for binding to interface or
address. However, in some (admittedly special) cases it is useful to
be able to specify both. This commit introduces the following syntax
to support binding to both interface and address:
--server X.X.X.X@IP@interface#port
Based on my tests, the syntax is backwards compatible with the current
@IP/interface#port. The code will fail if two interface names are given.
v1->v2:
* Add man page description of the extended server syntax (thanks Simon Kelley)

Manual page: clarify that the --address and --ipset options take one or
more domains rather than just two. Clarify that --ipset puts addresses
in all ipsets, it is not a 1:1 mapping from addresses.
Also increase the width for options output in --help, some options were
truncated leading to confusing output. Almost all options and
descriptions are now within the 120 colums limit.
