This PR aims to add a new feature: Four commands for working with the IPv6 host exposure settings available on Arris modems. They are:
host-exposure:get: Gets the current host exposure settings as JSONhost-exposure:set <FILE>: Set the host exposure settings on the modem from a file with JSON in the same format as produced by thegetcommandhost-exposure:(en|dis)able [ENTRY 1 | [ENTRY 2...] ]: Enable or disable all or specific entries in the host exposure settings by name of the entriesI have implemented these commands since they are useful in managing my infrastructure, in the hope that they'll be useful to others as well.
Unfortunately, I cannot provide an implementation for Technicolor modems since I don't own one to reverse-engineer the necessary settings with (if those are even available on Technicolor modems in the first place). If someone provides information on how Technicolor modems implement host exposure, I could add a corresponding implementation.
