Before this commit the decision whether a vxlan layer will be
introduced between the lower interface before the interface is
added to batman was inside the proto. Now the decision is moved
to the user of the proto.
Add a package for handling upgrade-scripts speific for the WAN radio
operation.
This way, the config mode interface can be removed seperately from the
core functionality to perform tasks on system upgrade. This can be
useful when the setup-mode is removed entirely for space preservation.
Allow the transmission of IPv6 multicast packets as long as they are not
flooded through the whole mesh.

This mark prevents a multicast packet being flooded through the whole
mesh. The advantage of marking certain multicast packets via e.g.
ebtables instead of dropping is then the following:
This allows an administrator to let specific multicast packets pass as
long as they are forwarded to a limited number of nodes only and are
therefore creating no burdon to unrelated nodes.

Set the ifname for the WAN radio (Private WLAN) to wanX, X being the
radio index.
All other radios created by Gluon already have their ifname defined
following this pattern.

Currently we do not perform CI firmware builds on the next-2102 branch.
Build Gluon for all branches starting with "next" to increase the
coverage of our build tests.

The rudimentary flash size determination function expects the partition
for the devices firmware to be called "linux" while it is (since quite
some time) "firmware".
Fix this error to display available flash size as well as more useful
error message in case the uploaded firmware image exceeds the flash
space.

With batman-adv 2020.4 and the according backports to batman-adv v2019.2
several more bugs were found and fixed regarding the batman-adv
multicast optimizations feature.
Also a "wakeup-call" feature was added to the Linux bridge IGMP/MLD
snooping code in Gluon to work around issues with Android devices.
With batman-adv now at v2019.2, multicast-to-multi-unicasts conversion
is supported, too. Which means that even if there are a few outdated nodes
these and all other recipients will be served multicast packets via unicast,
too, as long as the sum of receiving nodes does not exceed the multicast
fanout setting (default: 16). If is exceeded, then batman-adv will revert
back to broadcast flooding automatically.
Long story short, with all these extra measures in place, let's reenable
the batman-adv multicast optimizations to reduce the layer 2 overhead
and in preparation for multicast applications in the future.
The default is enabled for this feature anyway, so removing the
"batctl multicast_mode 0" overwrite is sufficient.

* apt is meant for user interactive usage. apt does not guarantee a stable CLI.
* set DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive to tell apt-get that no user interaction is wanted
