Tim Wilkinson ba94a86ce3 Fix empty initial lqm status.
Limit distance between DtD nodes which are considered at the same site.
Some network setups use non-ham networks to connect nodes over DtD links.
These should not be consider the same site, so we limit how far appart DtDed
nodes can be when optimizing.

Link Quality Management (#360)
* Link Quality Management experiment (built in)

* Protect LQM pages

* Omit "empty" mac addresses

* Integrate LQM v0.2
Includes proposed UI if this were built-in.
When LQM is enabled (advanced settings) the usual distance inputs are
replaced with "min snr' and "max distance" inputs which are the major
ones you might tweak, as well as a link to the LQM status page.
Other controls are now available (so protected) in advanced settings.

* Improve LQM updating

* Use running snr averages

* Merge app changes

* AREDN-ize the UI

* Improve status language

* Improved DtD detection

* Improve quality reporting

* Link Quality category

* Enable by default

* Better intergration

* Link => Neighbor

* Formatting

* Make sure initial page is populated without extra fetch

* Handle empty lqm.info

* Update with latest experiment algorithm changes

* Validate LQM settings before applying them

* Algorithm updates

* Improve quality reporting

* %% -> %

* Default max distance now 50 miles

* Get actual noise if radio will provide it

* low_snr => min_snr

* Dont print node description if we dont have one

* Remove properties duplicated from setup page

* Localize max distance. Miles in GB and US, Kilometers everywhere else.

* Ping link quality testing

* UDP 'ping' for quality check

* Change Active Settings title

* Expand ping test

* Improve messaging

* Add a ping penalty for neighbors which cannot be contacted in a timely manner.

* Remove user_blocks config option. No one needs to use this anymore.

* Localize distances on lqm page

* Improve status reporting

* First run emergency node setup.
When a node first runs LQM, if the default settings fail to connect to
a node we will now adjust them so that at least one node is viable.

* Restore blocking of mac addresses

* LQM now off by default

Make sure services are published even when no dtd or lan connected. (#327) 04/06/2022
If wifi is disabled, we will be using a "fake" device for the meshrf. However, this requires that the
underlying physical device is attached, and this might not be the case on devices with present
multiple ethernets (e.g. eth0 and eth1). Detect this and add an extra Hna4 config to OLSR to allow it to
keep using the wifi_ip even when no physical ethernet is attached.

Improve the firmware upgrade process (#294)
* Improve the firmware upgrade process

The old firmware upgrade process attempted to free up RAM by reusing
the 'upgrade_kill_prep' script which is later used by '/sbin/sysupgrade'.
Unfortuantely this doesn't work as intented. While the script will go about
killing various services, 'procd' just goes and starts them up again using
quite a bit more memory in the process. Instead this script just kills
the various daemons 'no questions asked' and then runs the associated
'/etc/init.d/xxx stop' script to instruct 'procd' not the start them up again.
This gets us to the place the original script was trying to go.

+ A syntax fix in '007' patch (need spaces around the [ .. ])

* Inline the style for the firmware page to avoid sleep before flash

* Minor reliability improvements

aredn: enhancement: Nat mode aliases
Aliases in NAT mode allows the node admin to create alias names for hosts on the LAN and then use those for creating port forwarding rules.  The aliases DO NOT effect the rest of the mesh network and are not propagated via OLSR.

NAT Mode aliases are only usable on the local LAN where the IP addresses are known and routable only on the subnet.   Since the NAT hides these IP addresses or the node masquerades, other mesh nodes and devices by definition only know about the node’s hostname.  Thus aliases on the LAN in NAT mode are not propagated by OLSR across the mesh.  You _CANNOT_ use an alias name in a service listing.

You _will_ be able to set an alternate hostname for any host on the nodes' LAN however.
A host named `CBY45-DELLLAPTOP` can also be known as `wxc-shack-laptop`. It may make remembering which host is which a bit easier.

Since OLSR does not propagate the alias,  the "Do Not Propagate" checkbox while in NAT Mode is hidden.

aredn: visualize non-propagated and aliased hosts (#569)
* enhancement: show the "non propagated" hosts as a grey color in the mesh list on the localnode.
This allows for the node admin to see, at a glance, which of the hosts are "hidden" or not.

* changed colors a little bit for the black background styles.
also assed in the aliases so now they will show up as a different color too.
this only effects the mesh listing on the localnode to where the aliases and/or non propagated hosts are.
the rest of the network does not see this.

* add a tooltip to the aliased/non propagated hostnames to help explain what they mean

aredn: allow aliased hostnames on the mesh
Allows for aliased hostnames on the mesh. One IP/Host can be assigned to multiple hostnames.
This is useful for many things including virtual hosts, virtual machines, virtual email addresses, etc.
The possibilities are actually _endless_.

Eric 8810e0eaaf Stop certain hostname/IP's from propagating over the mesh
Allows for the node admin to choose to have DHCP leased hostnames/IP's propagated over the rest of the mesh network or not.
Defaults to allowing the hostname/IP to propagate.

The hostname/IP will *still* be resolvable from the localnode and will show up in the list of hosts on the localnode only.
This allows for selected local mesh devices to be not available over the rest of the mesh network.
ie: switches, routers, cameras, etc.

This will work immediately for *new* DHCP leases when the checkbox is selected.
For *existing* DHCP leases, it may take a while for the network to update, if ever.
To speed up the process of full network OLSR "DNS" updating, reboot all the nearest neighbor device(s) to the node you made these changes to.
That seems to get the changes "out" to the rest of the network faster than normal.

Joe Ayers cecca6854d aredn: add Mode ether to tunnel interfaces
This reduces message forwarding by OLSR. Without this mode
olsr will forward a message backout the same interface it
was received on, presumably due to hidden 802.11n nodes.
