Comment:

 Please review. Keep in mind that this is a first ticket in a planned
 series of at least 3 tickets. Some of the code written (specific to cable
 modems) should be moved to an external library, but the classifier itself
 is a generic mechanism that can be used in many scenarios, not necessarily
 cable-related. Ultimately, we may consider developing dedicated hook
 points for client classification.

 Proposed ChangeLog entry
 {{{
 719.    [func]          tomek
         b10-dhcp4, b10-dhcp6: Support for simplified client classification
         added. Incoming packets are now assigned to a client class based
 on
         the content of user class (DHCPv4) or vendor class (DHCPv6). Two
 classes
         (docsis3.0 and eRouter1.0) have class specific behavior in
 b10-dhcp4.
         See DHCPv4 Client Classification and DHCPv6 Client Classification
 in
         BIND10 Developer's Guide for details. This is a first ticket in a
 series
         of planned at least three tickets.
