udhcpc: don't exit after backgrounding on -n -b
Currently, running "udhcpc -n -b" causes udhcpc to go to background and then exit after some time unless a lease is obtained. It's not very useful to do so as the calling process doesn't know if the lease was obtained or not anyway. The code actually tries to favor "-b" over "-n", but doesn't clear "-n" flag while clearing "-b" after backgrounding. So, clear "-n" flag after going into background. This effectively makes "-b" override "-n" completely and "-n -b" behave the same as "-b". This allows to override default "-n" option, passed to udhcpc by ifupdown, without recompiling busybox.
