Add support for acting as a TFTP server #1542

Description

Description

Add support for acting as a TFTP server so an Infix unit can hand out boot images, configs, and firmware to downstream devices on an isolated or provisioning network. This builds on dnsmasq, which is already part of the DNS/DHCP path.

TFTP remains the lowest-common-denominator transfer protocol for network boot and embedded provisioning (IP phones, legacy switches, BOOTP/DHCP flows). In segregated lab or field networks without external infrastructure, having the gateway or switch serve files directly removes the dependency on a separate host.
