Hi all,

This is mainly a "polishing" update of the draft. Most of the
technical specifications remains the same as last version.
The main updates are:
a)substential edits
b)Re-structure the contents of choosing between DHCPv4 over
IPv6/DHCPv4 over tunnel/DHCPv6
c)Make the usage of relay-encapsulation clear through  the document,
rather than just reference the draft.

Thanks Ted for so many valuable inputs.
