net: unaligned copying of unsigned long

The inline functions net_read_u32() and net_copy_u32() have been created to
copy unaligned u32. But this is not obvious to the compiler. GCC 9.1
introduces a check -Werror=address-of-packed-member which leads to a build
error on Travis CI:

net/bootp.c: In function ‘dhcp_send_request_packet’:
net/bootp.c:1011:27: error: taking address of packed member of
‘struct bootp_hdr’ may result in an unaligned pointer value
[-Werror=address-of-packed-member]
 1011 |  net_copy_u32(&bp->bp_id, &bp_offer->bp_id);

Change the type of the function parameters to void * to avoid the build
error.
