[Commotion-dev] Merged olsrd branch commotion + release-0.6.6

[Josh King]

Hey Ben,

How about you open a pull request against the 'commotion' branch in
upstream? I'll go ahead and test and then merge that into the rc2
testing images I'm working on.

Also, I'm interested in the defaults you got from Ferry in the config
file below. Is there a rationale behind those that exists somewhere?
