of the variables into the format string.

more clear what it does.
Trim interface_active() to just do what it should do. Check
if we got link or not and if the NIC supports it. No special
treatment for mediachecks here anymore.
Simplify the code a lot, and remove doublicated parts.
Fix two minor spelling errors.

- Rename linkstatus to linkstate which is more correct.
- Sort any leases each time we loose and regain link. With the first
version we spammed the dhclient.leases file.
- When there was no link on a interface, polling has been done twice.
This has been fixed with a bigger sleep interval.
- interface_active() now returns only a assumed state of the link.
If we are using media settings, we cannot be sure that the link
actually works. That means we assume that the link is working and
continue to send requests as usual on the interface and loop over
all possible media options. Polling is still done. If your interface
gets suddenly link, dhclient will send a dhcp discover request.
After all media settings have been tried a few times, dhclient will
sleep. If one does change networks very often, it can help to set the
"retry timeout" to a low value like 100 seconds. The default is over
six minutes.

Enable dhclient to poll the interface state and send only
requests if the interface has an active link. This is a
great benefit if you often change networks with your laptop
and you do not like to kill/restart dhclient all the time.
Changes are automatically detected and the link is refreshed.
The change allows us to start dhclient in background mode
while the network cable is not plugged in.
To control the polling interval, the option -i has been
introduced. It takes seconds as parameter, the minimum is
one second, the default is five seconds.
Polling is done in seconds, not microseconds, because dhclient
does internally work with timeouts in seconds.
This change will be part of the next major ISC-dhcpd release.

it forgot to null terminate the new argv[] array. If you mixed this
with $TAR_OPTIONS, phkmalloc and a whole bunch of other variables, you
could end up with a segfault. This isn't strictly a phkmalloc victory
since tar walks off the end of an array rather than use uninitialized
malloc memory, but phkmalloc makes it easier to provoke.
