[Bug 853255] [NEW] FFe: Sync dnsmasq 2.58-3 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

[Dave Walker]

Public bug reported:

Please sync dnsmasq 2.58-3 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:
New upstream version is mostly bug fixes:
 - http://thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/CHANGELOG

Introduces new binary package (dnsmasq-utils) which ships
dhcp_lease_time which allows fixing of bug 852771 (allow IP addresses to
be put back into the pool faster, for re-use - avoiding exhaustion.
This is the /main/ reason for the FFe request, and could be achieved by
cherrypicking that single change as it is in the current ubuntu package
upstream contrib/, but i'd like to avoid introducing a Ubuntu delta on
this package, and the other bug fixes seem generally useful.)
