[arm-allstar] hamvoip Updates March 15-2018

[Doug Crompton]

Lots of overnight updates!!!  Please use the admin menu item 1 to update.

-  Yet more Echolink updates to fix possible crashes.

   To put it simply Echolink was a mess. We have now fixed many problems in
the code
   starting with the database fix in 2017 and now a more extensive rewrite.
It is more
   efficient also. This may not be the last fix for Echolink but we at
least are getting a
   handle on most of the prior problems.

-  COP 48 has been fixed! It should now work as expected.

- simpleusb fixed to not display "stuck" messages when displaying MDC,
DTMF, and other cop 48 tones.

   These messages were harmless but annoying.

- Two new scripts to check for updates (hamvoip-update-status.sh)  and do
updates (hamvoip-sys-update.sh)

   This allows checking and running updates from the command line. Done
especially for some of our
   blind hams it will be useful for others also. The update script uses all
the proper parameters and
   post processing. Never run pacman manually as it may not complete the
update process properly.

- Supermon updates

    - added local RX-keyed on displayed nodes which shows local COS keyup.
This is displayed in light blue.

       This is very useful to remotely monitor the RF keying of a node.

    - other minor bug fixes.
