We extend the -a/--address option to accept addresses in CIDR notation
(e.g., 192.168.1.1/24 or 2001:db8::1/64) as an alternative to using
separate -a and -n options.

For IPv4, the prefix is stored in ip4.prefix_len when provided. The
CIDR prefix and -n/--netmask options are mutually exclusive - using
both results in an error.

Also fix a bug in conf_ip4_prefix() that was incorrectly using the
global 'optarg' instead of its 'arg' parameter.
