[PATCH v1] net: dhcp: send current hostname as part of the DHCP request

[PATCH v1] net: dhcp: send current hostname as part of the DHCP request

[Oleksij Rempel]

To be able to use more advanced DHCP server configurations, for example
host name pattern matching, barebox should send some name.

With this patch, barebox will send barebox_hostname, if dhcp.hostname is
not configured.
