Comment (by tomek):

 We need:
 1. 1 octet (Message type, option overload ("field use option") )
 2. IPv4 address (requested IP address, subnet mask)
 3. IPv4 address list (Router Option, DNS Servers)
 4. 1-byte long, just type, not even length field (pad, end)
 5. list of octets (PRL)

 Cases 1 and 5 can be handled with current Option class.
 Case 4 will be coded as a property of the framework. There's not much
 sense in adding class for a single byte.

 To cover those cases, Option4Addr and Option4AddrLst classes should be
 implemented. Although a single address could be represented as degraded
 case of AddrLst, it is more convenient to have 2 separate classes with
 simpler interfaces.
