Add the --small configure option which currently removes non essential options
from being parsed out into dhcpcd-run-hooks and removes support for DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation. This is mainly to build a tiny dhcpcd for install media size there are more extreme space limitations.

Notes
-----
+To compile small dhcpcd, maybe to be used for installation media where
+size is a concern, you can use the --small configure option to enable
+a reduced feature set within dhcpcd.
+Currently this just removes non important options out of
+dhcpcd-definitions.conf and removes support for DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation.
+Other features maybe dropped as and when required.
+
If you're cross compiling you may need set the platform if OS is different
from the host.
