[BusyBox] busybox udhcpc

Ive had a go at converting udhcpc to a busybox applet.

udhcpc is 18.5kB standalone, compiled into busybox it adds about 11kB so
it saves 7kB.

Im thinking it could be usefull atleast for the debian-installer

I havent tested it yet, it compiles without errors however i think there
may be a problem in there as discover appears to be sending out packets
faster.

The only changes ive made is to use xstrlen, xmalloc, and moved a few
functions that were only used once.

There may be code that could be common to other busybox network applets,
but i havent looked for that, i dont know the network applets very well.
