Jarrod Johnson 2058e73ce6 Extend DHCP timeou
Per  Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>:
For discovery, both the DHCP and PXE specs suggest timeouts of 4, 8,
16, and 32 seconds.  This gives us a maximum timeout of 60 seconds,
versus the current timeout of 15 seconds at timeouts of 1, 2, 4, and
8 seconds.

On the request phase, the specs are quite different.  RFC2131 for DHCP
suggests the same intervals as above for discovery, while the PXE spec
recommends intervals of 1, 2, 3, and 4 seconds.  Our timer only wants
to do exponential back-off, so we compromise and adjust to intervals
of 1, 2, 4, and 8 seconds.  PXE boot server discovery appears to want
the same timeouts as the DHCP request phase.
