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_.
Fixes#516
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.
Fixes#508
* bugfix: Check for existing hostnames on the network in DHCP reservations
fixes#216
*additional check for existing hostname when creating new DHCP lease.
checks hosts_olsr file if entered hostname already exists or not on the connected network(s).
outputs info saying such and gives advice to prefix hostname with callsign.
* change to use =~ /\s$host\S/i
* Reworded warning message
* moved the position of the hostname check to only when you click "add" on the DHCP leases page.
this stops it checking all the previously entered hostnames.
The DHCP Name reservation on the ports page would allow
a user to use the name of the mesh node as a hostname
for a reserved host which would mess up the remote display
of hosts on the mesh status screen.
In addition while testing the verification code it was found
that it was case sensitive while dns is case insensitive.

Inside the source files the word "contained" was mispelled
as "conained"
The website currently lists this correctly as "contained"

This is at the top of the license header.
It prevents the code from being processed but doesn't
actually impact the license terms in any way.

Create get_interface which will lookup in the current uci network config the realname for the logical interface name.
When the interface is not found it will fall back to a hard coded list.
Configure the UI to use the new get_interface function.
Since a large number of the BBHNDev team has decided to create firmware fully independent of the BBHN Project the decision has been made to rebrand the firmware to differentiate from the origional BBHN work.
We would like to thank all those whom have worked on the BBHN firmware over the years and all those who continue to work on the firmware under AREDN(TM).
Program went GPLv3 last year but license text was never added to files

Units will show:
Yellow banner for devices we have not yet tested.
Red banner for devices we have confirmed do not work.
Relies on what Ubiquiti calls the board.sysid which is the
value of subsystem_device on the first PCI device.
Includes removing files that are provided by packages instead
of being embedded as binaries.
Changes made for UBNT hardware AND for newer base openwrt (Backfire)
