Comment:

 The code now allows to create definitions for standard options for which
 Kea doesn't provide a definition. Also added a paragraph to bind10-guide
 with the note that it is not allowed to create custom definitions for
 standard options, except for those for which we haven't implemented
 support yet.

 Apart from adding a unit test that checks the new rules for creating
 definitions for std options, I also performed some manual tests to check
 that I can create a definition for selected std options using bindctl, and
 it seemed to work.

 Proposed !ChangeLog:
 {{{
 XXX.    [bug]           marcin
         libdhcpsrv: server configuration mechanism allows creating
 definitions
         for standard options for which Kea doesn't provide a definition
 yet.
         Without this, the server administrator couldn't configure options
 for
         which a definition didn't exist.
         (Trac# 3309, git abcd)

 }}}

 Please review.
