I took the version in proposed (1.3.17ubuntu0.1) for a spin. Following
the steps under the test case, I can confirm that the messages are in
fact gone. However, there are still occasional DHCPREQUEST message
because some xid values have a leading 0 that is stripped and hence the
xid is only 7 values instead of 8. Those messages then will not be
caught by the regex. For example:

Aug 17 16:43:47 xenial dhclient[5664]: DHCPREQUEST of 192.168.122.59 on
ens3 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 (xid=0x7e8da8e)

This version of the package will remove nearly all but these occasional
messages and gets our package updated with the upstream package's regex.
I have filed an upstream bug here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=872463
