many AVM devices do not have RESET/WPS buttons. So use the otherwise unused DECT/PHONE button to boot the device into setup mode.
This patch allows to enter the setup-mode by pressing the phone button
(often labeled as DECT) in addition to WPS and reset button.
This patch is necessary to allow supporting boards without a WPS and reset
button (e.g. AVM FRITZ!Box 7312).
This adds a warning that entprise switches with an IGMP/MLD snooping
feature are not supported yet with IGMP/MLD filtering enabled.
For this to work, firstly the Linux bridge on the Gluon node needs to
support Multicast Router Discovery (RFC4286). But this feature was only
added to the Linux kernel recently, in 5.1.
Secondly, a Gluon node would need to periodically send "Multicast Router
Advertisment" (RFC4286) messages, to "announce" the multicast router
port setting on bridge port bat0.
Thirdly, the IGMP/MLD snooping switches would need to implement
RFC4286.
The kernel partition on these devices is too small for the
OpenWrt 19.07 kernel. It is also located after the rootfs, so
we cannot grow it further.
Therefore mark these devices as deprecated now.
This adds documentation for the gluon-mesh-batman-adv package and
elaborates on its build and configuration options, as well as
the implemented multicast architecture.

$(TOPDIR) does not contain a trailing slash.
Thus the 'gluon.mk'-include must include
the trailing slash. (Just like the link to
$(INCLUDE_DIR)/package.mk does.)

This new build flag is mandatory for now (it may default to 0 in a future
Gluon version). It may be set to the following values:
* 0 - Do not build any images for deprecated devices.
* upgrade - Only build sysupgrade images for deprecated devices.
* full - Build both sysupgrade and factory images for deprecated devices.
"Other" images are handled like factory images, as they are also used for
the initial installation of Gluon on a device.
Add the `wifi5.outdoor_chanlist` site configuration that
allows specifying an outdoor channel range that can be
switched to for regulatory compliance.
Upon enabling the outdoor option the device will
- configure the `outdoor_chanlist` on all 5 GHz radios
- which may enable DFS/TPC, based on the regulatory domain
- disable ibss/mesh on the 5 GHz radio, as DFS *will*
break mesh connections
- allow for htmode reconfiguration on 5 GHz radios
The outdoor option can be toggled from
- Advanced Settings
- W-LAN
- Outdoor Installation
The `preserve_channel` flag overrules the outdoor channel
selection.
