Julia Kreger 90d58ede94 Fix DHCPv6 support
Adds logic to handle the appropriate replies for DHCPv6
responses.

The IPv6 nature was discovered while researching differences
and finding that the field ID value changes between IPv4 and
IPv6 DHCP clients, as DHCPv6 is purely booting from a URL.

Fixes a misunderstanding in how DHCPv6 booting of machines operates
in that only a URL to the boot loader is expected in that case, as opposed
to traditional TFTP parameters. Now a URL is sent to the client in the form
of ``tftp://<tftp_address>/<tftp_path>/<boot_file>``. See
`story 1744620 <https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/1744620>`_
for more information.
