[#1428] Allow non-unique IPs in MySQL and PgSQL

Introduced new host API function which allows for configuring selected
backends to accept non-unique IP reservations for multiple hosts. Support
for it was added in MySQL, Postgres and Kea config file. It is not
supported in Cassandra. New migrations for MySQL and Postgres have been
created.
