Description

  • add squelchStatuses config option to suppress messages about unwanted statuses, set a reasonable default
  • add squelchStatusesAgain option to suppress only "you are again" messages for certain statuses (such as overweight which is sent every time inventory changes)
  • squelch all MAPTYPE_* again messages - always happen due to how packets are sent after map changes
  • group messages when several statuses change - maybe only display it when all buffered incoming packets were processed, for example; we can have a sys option to disable this
