Bug Description

When starting up, dnsmasq invokes "nova-dhcpbridge init" to prime its leases state. However, the format in which nova-dhcpbridge dumps its state is wrong. It's supposed to be in "leasesfile" format, while it's in "dhcp-host" format. The latter is meant for configurating the mapping from MAC to IP (i.e. it's a configuration file), while that former is a state snapshot.

Up until dnsmasq 2.55 this caused dnsmasq's state to be primed with wrong information, but with dnsmasq 2.57 it causes a crash. I've reported the crash upstream.
