Add support for dynamic "NAT" interfaces (-L/local interface).
When a local interface is configured, vmd configures a /31 address on the tap(4) interface of the host and provides another IP in the same subnet via DHCP (BOOTP) to the VM. vmd runs an internal BOOTP server that replies with IP, gateway, and DNS addresses to the VM. The built-in server only ever responds to the VM on the inside and cannot leak its DHCP responses to the outside. Thanks to Uwe Werler, Josh Grosse, and some others for testing! OK deraadt@
