One is to provide clear feedback when a nodename is requested
that was not previously defined, to make it more clear that
it is a requirement and/or guard against going too far while
the config function will be missing data it needs to complete
onboarding.
Another is to break if the request is trying to assign a node
to a different definition when it already exists under a different
name.
Trying to do so while guarding against errors and sanitizing input was more code and slower
than targeting the one possible cookie we might care about.
So the code is simpler and
the performance is better, and the effect of stray cookies are mitigated.
If an invalid cookie from another site breaks the cookie jar,
then sanitize it.

Performance enhancement through setting a header in javascript in
lieu of cookie parsing seems a wise move for the future.
While our security guidelines preclude allowing host to know the password,
it is considered acceptable to do the out-of-band authentication configuration.
Have configbmc request a unicast remote configuration. This should handle authentication
as well as ensuring ongoing consistency between out of band and in-band configuration
methods.
There has been some confusion when configbmc changes
are deferred until later.
Reduce confusion by waiting for the settings to take effect,
but avoiding checking each parameter
to preserve most of the speedup.
Upon connection loss, even though confluent internally
decides it is done with it, it fails to close the session.
Catch a number of these scenarios and ensure the connection closes.
Notably the uuid change can end up recursing. Fix the behavior that will cause never ending
loops, which in some IO situations
can end in recursion limits.
TSM redfish stack has an issue where it refuses to recognize any
non-redfish password change. Use redfish to change.
Regretably, it takes about 10 seconds for that change to propogate
to the practical API, so we have a discovery delay now.

If the kernel is new enough to do SKU, but the firmware doesn't have it,
fallback to model.
Fix outright mistakes in the config_port_tsm code
Up mac count from 2 to 3. If querying cumulus switches using SNMP
the switch will add its own mac to the list bringing the
total for a shared port to 3.
