Patch to fix the bug

The udhcpc applet allows to populate the "Parameter request list" using Option -O.

Beside a list of known option, it is possible to specify a numeric option code.
However, when entering an option that is not known to udhcpc it silently ignores it and does not put it on the parameter request list.

The attached patch should fix the problem.
