netutils/dhcpc: Set BOOTP BROADCAST flag when IPFORWARD is enabled

Browse Source 
Socket binded to INADDR_ANY is not intended to receive unicast traffic before being fully configured, at least dhclient configured with socket-only won't do so on Linux and BSDs (https://github.com/isc-projects/dhcp/blob/v4_4_3/common/socket.c#L1201).
We can sometimes receive unicast traffic before being fully configured, it's good, but not always, so we need to set the broadcast flag under some situations.

Note: We're not always able to receive unicast traffic before
being fully configured, e.g. with forward enabled. Then we need
to enable the broadcast flag under these situations.
