[arm-allstar] Post-update connection status at allstarlink, bubble chart anomalies

[David McGough]

Hi Larry,

This anomalies has been reported.  I've found a subtle optimization in
V1.7.0-01 which seems to be the cause of this issue. It is related to how
the data is reported to the ASL stats server.  I've added a "hack" to
resolve this issue.  This update is being tested internally now, since it
includes some other subtle fixes, too.

This problem isn't related to the DVSwitch Mobile status info.  The latest 
release (in testing) has a work-around to re-enable the DVSwitch info as 
well.


Thanks for for feedback!
