Simon Kelley 79aba0f10a Support prefixed ranges of ipv6 addresses in dhcp-host. ...

When a request matching the clid or mac address is
recieved the server will iterate over all candidate
addresses until it find's one that is not already
leased to a different clid/iaid and advertise
this address.

Using multiple reservations for a single host makes it
possible to maintain a static leases only configuration
which support network booting systems with UEFI firmware
that request a new address (a new SOLICIT with a new IA_NA
option using a new IAID) for different boot modes, for
instance 'PXE over IPv6', and 'HTTP-Boot over IPv6'. Open
Virtual Machine Firmware (OVMF) and most UEFI firmware
build on the EDK2 code base exhibit this behaviour.
