slirp: Fix assertion failure on rejected DHCP requests
The guest network stack might DHCPREQUEST an address that the slirp built in dhcp server can't let it have - for example if the guest has an old leases file from another network configuration. In this case the dhcp server should and does reject the request and prepares to send a DHCPNAK to the client. However, in this case the daddr variable in bootp_reply() is set to 0.0.0.0. Shortly afterwards, it unconditionally attempts to pre-insert the new client address into the ARP table. This causes an assertion failure in arp_address_add() because of the 0.0.0.0 address. According to RFC2131, DHCPNAK messages for clients on the same subnet must be sent to the broadcast address (S3.2, subpoint 2).
