Description

The DHCP parser defines a malformed_options field intended to identify options that fail validation despite having sufficient input data.
However, this field is never set, and every option parsing failure is classified as truncated.

The parser should distinguish incomplete option data from malformed option contents so that dhcp.malformed_options and dhcp.truncated_options events are reported correctly.
