Thruk v2.10 released

[Sven Nierlein]

Dear List,

This week starts with a new Thruk release and it includes some new highlights.

The action menus have been made simpler to define. You don't have to define them in the main config file anymore and
use separate files instead. Read more on that here: https://thruk.org/documentation/configuration.html#action-menu-settings

Scripting and remote access has been made simpler when using the cookie auth. For specific user agents, you
can send a basic auth header and use a one-time-session automatically.
See https://thruk.org/documentation/configuration.html#cookie_auth_direct_agents

The panorama dashboard has been enhanced with some nice features. It is possible to create dynamic dashboards on
the fly, meaning a executable script creates the hole dashboard json definition on request. This can be used to
create icons for all hostgroups or fetching gps data for objects. Documentation and some examples are
here https://thruk.org/documentation/dashboard_scripted.html
With these scripted dashboards a new "start dashboard" with an overview of all existing dashboards has been created.
This means the last dashboard can be closed now and there is is a new icon type to display the status of another
dashboard which makes drill down maps simpler. Btw, the start dashboard can be customized by putting a file "0.tab"
in the dashboard folder (which has moved to /etc/thruk/panorama)
Last big panorama change is the customizable popups. They can now be fully customized just like the text labels, including
dynamic macro replacement, html, etc...

Besides that a lot of small things have been fixed, changed or added, see
