Hi,
Previous to netifd, an `option proto dhcp` interface would store some data
related to its DHCP lease under the uci state, as
`network.foo.lease_hostname`. This no longer works with netifd.
The attached patch is based on [https://lists.openwrt.org/pipermail
/openwrt-devel/2014-April/024924.html netifd: store DHCP options] from
Jiří Šlachta, but uses `proto_add_data` as part of the main
proto_send_update request.
This results in something like the following for `ubus call
network.interface.mgmt status`:
{
....
"data": {
"lease_hostname": "dlink-4cdaa2",
"lease_ntpsrv": "10.8.0.41 10.8.0.42"
}
}
This lets one use an `/etc/hotplug.d/iface` script to do things like set
the system hostname from the DHCP lease provided hostname.
