[arm-allstar] Radioless Node - push button switch to run connect to hub/node script

[David McGough]

Hi Rob,

This will require some fairly simple custom scripting, asterisk itself
doesn't monitor any RPi GPIO signals.

Basically, the /usr/local/sbin/shutdown_monitor.sh script would probably 
be a place to start.
