Mainly relates to TP-Link devices which have a roving power level programmed into the hardware.
The datasheets for the hardware may say higher power but the chip has been programmed to not go above these values.
Regression of changeset:e34b7fcee49c3e2b7eb35aa4fb44b6abdc78b3ad/aredn_ar71xx
Having moved to iw for iwinfo we have a regression previous commit.
Restore fix that if not seen after 10 seconds signal drops from display.
We should of used the freq: field, not sure why I did not use it to begin with.
Corrected and added a small function to convert from frequency to channel.
Pull Darryl's sysinfo.json into release as post release lock feature addition.
Approval Notes:
Feature after feature-lock approved as add on only reads data and does not write or configure any program.
Feature is not expected to hold up active dev and can be demoted if needed to close release branch.
The code makes the assumption that the connection has not been modified to be encrypted (Standard is not under AREDN V3 protocol) but this may need to be changed in the future.
Not getting much debug information at moment, would like to put this in uci-defaults but with issues that I can't seem to log at moment (and not having serial cable for this device) I'm going with lets put it in /etc/init.d/local before nvram and similar gets set.

Due to issues we are pulling the showing of tunnels untill we can better detect them.
We are also pulling dtdlink as all AREDN nodes should have dtdlink enabled.
Old code would set mac on the sub-vlan not the master interface which could cause issues.
Rework to be more functional in the future and to work correctly on vlan interfaces.
ref AREDN->ticket:115
Switch to iw over iwinfo because it handles the new channels better.

fixes AREDN->ticket:129
bugfix: antenna selector does not function: Remove selector.
The antenna selector was a hold back to older hardware where both antennas were not used fully.
In all current hardware the system detects the antennas and handles the RF path for us.
The 'hack' we had been using to set the system to use only a single chain no longer works, and since it was a 'hack' to being with (that could cause other issues) it is best to remove it and let the hardware do what it does best.
Dummy loads are still recomended on unused ports for RFI/EMI and keeping the port clean.
