@marka63: Should the command be modzone and not addzone with your feature? Because if we're dealing with an automatic zone, then it's existing, and therefore a modification not an addition, right?

kea: add support synthesizing imported config files
02ba708 
Configuring Kea JSON files is not trivial, and this might impede
the adoption of Kea as a DHCP server.  There are, however, many
users who used its predecessor ISC-DHCP, at least for DHCPv4.
A filter could ingest the legacy UCI and synthesize a JSON config
file for Kea DHCPv4.

8eb0acb 
Now that ISC-DHCP is EOLs, users might want to transparently
to the functionality of Kea.  This supports most of the
functionality of ISC-DHCP for v4.

1948da8 
If the renewal-time isn't set for the host, but it's forced to send,
send the subnet renew time value instead.
