Note this message is not a full review, just a few questions before I
carry on.

Does dnsmasq pass through the rest of the environment we pass to it at
this point? The leaseshelper extracts quite a lot of stuff from the
environment variables that are passed by dnsmasq. In case it does we
could use an env variable to pass the interface name instead of linking
the helper and using different names.

A second issue that comes into my mind is compatibility with already
existing files. Does this work when you already have a lease file? (I
didn't try it, I'm just asking).

Here we extract a lot of stuff ...
