I thought about that, but it really does not make sense.

Setting `global.fqdn.source = "from-dhcp"` is a option that must be
actively set by the user and it just does not make sense, if the DHCP
does not provide (at least) a hostname.

At this point, the hostname can also be set directly in the answer file
as before, instead of using this option.
