please note: i blatantly stole from dhcpcd community's README, please point out any problems.

i originally also wanted this to show up with https://kisscommunity.bvnf.space/software/.

sdhcp has no configuration file and is managed via variables - SERVER, DNS, ROUTER, MASK, CLIENT, it only has 4 flags.

Package READMEs show up in kiss help <pkg> or, for packages in Dylan's repo, at https://kisslinux.org/wiki/. You are very welcome to write a kind of usage guide to put in https://kisscommunity.bvnf.space/software/ - maybe it could demonstrate those environment variables. Either write it and email me a patch, or make a pull request over on https://github.com/kiss-community/kisscommunity.org.

This package is probably better suited to the community repo though, since we already have a DHCP client in extra.

I appreciate it, but to be honest I am not good at writing stuff like this and plus those variables are pretty much rarely needed? The 5 arguments are mainly for debugging or misc - such as: not overwritting resolv.conf, run in foreground (used in the service), don't change interface info, and run an external program that will have the variables passed to it.

This package is probably better suited to the community repo though, since we already have a DHCP client in extra.

I intentionally opened this PR here mainly for the purpose of providing a better and faster DHCP client, as I had a good experience with it and would love it to be an alternative or replacement for bloated dhcpcd.

I would like to also point out the service doesn't work, I am working to fix it currently.
