Oops. I never noticed the test code deleting the option - "domain" and
adding "domain_name".

I looked into the code now and this is what has happened. We never
supported the dhcp
option 15 (domain_name) earlier and this patch adds the support for this
option.
But the initial commit [1] which added the DHCP support in OVN has added
the option 15 with the
name - "domain" in the test-ovn.c. I think it was a mistake from my side to
add that option in the
test code even though we never supported that option. My mistake. I think I
might have added that
option in the test code (but not in the actual list) is probably to test
the action - put_dhcp_opts
with an option of type "str".
