We now supply a minimal dhclient-script of our own in the mbuto boot image.
There are some problems with it, so add some basic logging to help debug
it.

Modern Fedora (and RHEL) systems have /sbin as a symlink to /usr/sbin
(along with a number of similar links). Along with that it expects to
find dhclient-script in /usr/sbin/dhclient-script rather than
/sbin/dhclient-script.
Link them together in our mbuto image so that the Fedora build of dhclient
can find it.

AFAICT the symlink we created in mbuto from /usr/bin/bash to /bin/sh was
for the benefit of a dhclient-script which used /usr/bin/bash as its
interpreter (e.g. in Fedora). That was a bit risky if the script really
did require bash and we linked it to dash or another shell.
We now supply our own custom dhclient-script, so we don't need the
link any more.

David reports that dhclient-script(8) on Fedora needs a number of
binaries that are not included in PROGS of the current mbuto profile,
and we would also need to include hostnamectl(1) there, which will
fail without a systemd init.
Embed a minimal script for dhclient(8) in the profile itself, written
to /sbin/dhclient-script at boot, to just check what we need to check
out of DHCP and DHCPv6 functionality.
While at it, drop busybox and logger from PROGS, as we don't need them,
and add hostname(1). While DHCP option 12 isn't supported yet by the
DHCP implementation in passt, we should probably add it soon.
Note: owing to the simplicity of this script, we now need to bring up
the interface before starting dhclient: add this in test scripts where
it's not the case yet.

This depends on a future change in mbuto to accept external profile
files. Add a file defining what we need for tests and demos, dropping
udhcpc and script as they're not needed anymore, and switch to it.
