Subject: [PATCH] mountd: add --cache-use-ipaddr option to force use_ipaddr

When logging authentication requests, it can be easier to read the logs
if clients are always identified by IP address, not intermediate names
like netgroups or subnets.

To allow this, add --cache-use-ipaddr or -i which tell mountd to always
enable use_ipaddr.
