For certain network setups the default values currently used to send
a wake on lan magic packet are not correct, e.g. it will get send via
the interface for which the default gateway is configured.

This patches add optional configuration options to set a bind
interface, over which to send the WoL packet and/or set a broadcast
address to use.

The functionality was tested by listening on all interfaces of the
sending host via `tcpdump -i any udp port 9`, and testing the
combinations of
`pvenode config set -wakeonlan-bind-interface <iface-name>` and
`pvenode config set -wakeonlan-broadcast-address <broadcast-address>`.
