networkd: fallback to chaddr for static lease lookup when not found
DHCP static leases are looked up by the client identifier as send by the client, while configured based on MAC. As RFC 2131 states the client identifier is an opaque key and must not be interpreted by the server this means that DHCP clients can (/will) also use a client identifier which is not a MAC address. One of these clients actually is systemd-networkd which uses an RFC 4361 by default to generate the client identifier. For these kind of DHCP clients static leases thus don't work because of this mismatch between configuring a MAC address but the server matching based on client identifier. This adds a fallback to try to look up a configured static lease based on the "chaddr" of the DHCP message as this will always contain the MAC address of the client. Fixes systemd#21368
