Use internal dhcp client for centos 9-stream and beyond

Browse Source 
All indication in CI is that Centos Stream9's use of dhclient
appears to point to compatability issues when interacting with
dnsmasq. However, this doesn't appear to be the issue with the
internal dhcp client. As such, lets constraint the RH default
so that it no longer applies to Centos 9-stream.

I've also added a documentation entry for DIB_DHCP_CLIENT which
was previously undocumented.

As an aside, I've already reached out to RH's NetworkManager team
regarding this, but root cause is not entirely understood at this
point.

:Description: When NetworkManager is in use, this setting conveys which DHCP
client is in use for acquiring a DHCP address for the node. In some specific
cases, where known that dhclient is the tested or most compatible default,
specifically for Centos 7, 8, and 8-Stream, as well as derived distributions.
Otherwise, the "internal" dhcp client is the default.
