dhcp: Only use DHCP server port if explicitly configured

Browse Source 
If a DHCP server is running on the same host it isn't necessary to
bind the server port and might even cause conflicts.

DHCP server unicast or broadcast IP address.
charon.plugins.dhcp.use_server_port = no
Use the DHCP server port (67) as source port when a unicast server address
is configured.
Use the DHCP server port (67) as source port, instead of the DHCP client
port (68), when a unicast server address is configured and the plugin acts
as relay agent. When replying in this mode the DHCP server will always send
packets to the DHCP server port and if no process binds that port an ICMP
port unreachables will be sent back, which might be problematic for some
DHCP servers. To avoid that, enabling this option will cause the plugin to
bind the DHCP server port to send its requests when acting as relay agent.
This is not necessary if a DHCP server is already running on the same host
and might even cause conflicts (and since the server port is already bound,
ICMPs should not be an issue).

Interface name the plugin uses for address allocation.
