Yes, I'd like some kind of integration of NSS and networkd's dhcp
server. But I don't think resolved should be involved. Instead, we
should add another NSS module that queries the DHCP lease database via
dbus, similar to how nss-resolve talks to resolved or nss-mymachines
talks to machined. Of course, we can make that happen only when
networkd gets a bus interface, which is not before kdbus, because it
needs to run in early boot where dbus1 is not available...
