Michael Brown 7cc7e0ec86 [dhcp] Reset start time when deferring discovery
If we detect (via STP) that a switch port is in a non-forwarding
state, then the link is marked as being temporarily blocked and DHCP
discovery will be deferred until the link becomes unblocked.

The timer used to decide when to give up waiting for ProxyDHCPOFFERs
is currently based on the time that DHCP discovery was started, and
makes no allowances for any time spent waiting for the link to become
unblocked.  Consequently, if STP is used then the timeout for
ProxyDHCPOFFERs becomes essentially zero.

Fix by resetting the recorded start time whenever DHCP discovery is
deferred due to a blocked link.
