Description

IPoE-server add the ability to start a session with an unclassified packet.
Currently, the session can be started only by DHCP packet start=dhcpv4
https://github.com/vyos/vyos-1x/blob/df0ef8a25f8f431ed9216b307f817a25d280acd8/data/templates/accel-ppp/ipoe.config.j2#L58

Needs to add start=up option
For sessions, start with the unclassified packet (start=up); the username is the client's IP address.

start=dhcpv4|up|auto

    By default is not defined. Important to set this.
    Parameter specifies which way session starts:

        dhcpv4 - start on DHCP Discover.
        up - unclassified packet.
        auto - means automatically start session with username=interface name. Use it with conjunction vlan_mon.

Proposed CLI:

set service ipoe-server interface eth1 start-session <dhcpv4|unclassified-packet>
