busybox: Support DHCP refresh without restarting the interface

When the kernel is started using ip=dhcp, we want a way to be able to run
the udhcp client within busybox and not reset the interface.

When using the '-D' option to udhcpc, the defconfig script will be skipped
allowing the refresh without changing the network settings.

Also provide an initscript that can be used to detect ip=dhcp on the
kernel command line, if detected it will refresh the lease and set the
proper resolve.conf and related files, but not reset the interface.
