Log:
  dhclient(8): allow to supersede interface-mtu option
  
  In some cases broken DHCP servers might send invalid MTU value, so allow to
  use 'supersede' in dhclient.conf to override this. When superseded value is
  0, MTU value is not updated at all.

  Relnotes:	yes (potentially surprising behavior change w/ broken dhcpd mtu)
