[PATCH v2 0/2] Client Taxonomy

A followup note about the signature feature: we've extracted the
signature database from the larger code repository it was in, and made
it available on github.
https://github.com/NetworkDeviceTaxonomy/wifi_taxonomy

The code on github is a Python module. To use it scripts would need to
be constructed to use the hostapd_cli 'signature' command to get the
string, fetch any supplemental information from DHCP used in some of
the signatures, and call the Python code to look it up. This is
something we expect to make easier over time, by more directly
integrating with the hostapd_cli path.
