feature request: proxy DHCP mode #4

dnsmasq has the proxy DHCP mode for PXE, which can assist an existing DHCP server in providing boot information. This would allow decoupling of IP allocations from this service.

I have been considering it. Unfortunately the IP allocation is deep within astralboot. I'm currently looking into a significant rewrite that would allow the dhcp proxy and isolate many of the services.
