From: Brian Haley <haleyb....@gmail.com>

Currently, dhcp_release will only send a 'fake' release
when the address given is in the same subnet as an IP
on the interface that was given.

This doesn't work in an environment where dnsmasq is
managing leases for remote subnets via a DHCP relay, as
running dhcp_release locally will just cause it to
silently exit without doing anything, leaving the lease
in the database.

Change it to use the default IP on the interface, as the
dnsmasq source code at src/dhcp.c does, if no matching subnet
IP is found, as a fall-back.  This fixes an issue we are
seeing in certain Openstack deployments where we are using
dnsmasq to provision baremetal systems in a datacenter.

While using Dbus might have seemed like an obvious solution,
because of our extensive use of network namespaces (which
Dbus doesn't support), this seemed like a better solution
than creating system.d policy files for each dnsmasq we
might spawn and using --enable-dbus=$id in order to isolate
messages to specific dnsmasq instances.
