sd-dhcp6-client: delay setting the DUID and don't fail constructor

sd_dhcp6_client_new() tried to set the DUID based on the machine id.
If the host has no /etc/machine-id, the constructor would fail
making it impossible to create an sd_dhcp6_client instance.

Relax this and create a DUID only later as needed. This way a caller
caller can workaround a missing machine-id file and set a DUID of his
choosing via sd_dhcp6_client_set_duid().
