A bit of background, since I forgot to add --notes: I have used this
patch for a long time, and decided to submit it since there was a
question about it on help-guix.

I have not tested the standalone configuration with the Guix DHCP client
service since I use a custom one.  Though I expect that to work fine.
Feedback appreciated!

This is called 'extra-options' elsewhere and fixed locally.
