The (u)dhcpc hook installed by the busybox package configures the
network and exits. If we want to do anything further with a DHCP lease,
we'd have to replace the script entirely.

This change introduces a .d directory for hooks (based on the script
filename), which are executed after the interface configuration. This
allows packages to drop a script file in the .d directory to perform
actions on DHCP events.

We'll use this in a later change to notify petitboot of DHCP boot
information.

I'm not against such a change, but there is a gotcha, see below...

If the directory exists, but there is no hook, then HOOK will have the
value '${HOKK_DIR}/*', and this will result in a error.

You have to do something like:

    for hook in "${HOOK_DIR}/"*; do
        [ -f "${hook}" -a -x "${hook}" ] || continue
        "${hook}" "${@}"
    done

And then you do not need to protect with the if-block.
