[Commotion-admin] [luci-commotion] Add multi-interface support to additional network interfcaes (#133)

[Seamus Tuohy]

Page ready for R1. More work needs to be take on for R1.1 to apply these options across all interfaces.

FROM:
opentechinstitute/commotiond#43
opentechinstitute/commotiond#52 (out of band conversation)

"After reflecting on the old notes in this issue, your proposed options in the other issue, which options are mutually exclusive, and our previous conversation, here are my new proposed options. These are actually potentially valid for all three types of interfaces, in that I realized that all the different default functionality for interfaces can be encapsulated by these three options. Also, I realized that a manual switch for 'gateway' is global, and not specific to a given interface. Given the potential for abuse, we should probably hold off of allowing a manual gateway switch until we have #52.

option meshed (true/false) : controls whether this interface passes OLSR traffic. Default off for ap & plug, on for mesh.

option announced (true/false) : controls whether the subnet on this interface is advertised as an HNA. Default true for ap, and for plug acting as a dhcp server, but default false for mesh and for plug acting as a DHCP client.

option dhcp (client, server, none, auto) : client always attempts to get a DHCP lease. Server always attempts to hand one out. None does not attempt to do anything with DHCP; it just attempts to configure the interface. Auto is the current default functionality. Default auto for plug, server for ap, and none for mesh."
