Based on my experience, there has been no way to explicitly ignore BOOTP requests in favor of DHCP (at least as of version 2.51). What we had to do was add a requirement against the ClientId, which is not included in the BOOTP request. This had the effect of causing DNSMasq to ignore the BOOTP requests in question.
We did this to overcome limitations with a specific client; your mileage may vary.
