Description Jesper Skriver freebsd_committer

	sysinstall(8) today have bogus checks of the fourth octet of a
IPv4 address is 0 or 255.
The below diff remove these, and add a new check that the address specified
is not the network or broadcast address.

Fix: Apply
How-To-Repeat: 	Try to configure a FreeBSD machine with the ip address 10.0.1.0 with a 
netmask of 255.255.254.0 (/23), which is a perfect valid host address.
