[Chilli] meaning of option --anyipexclude

Hello,

There was an option added to chilli called:

  option "anyipexclude" - "Network to exclude from uamanyip"  string no

However, it is a bit misleading... 

The current anyipexclude option is only relevant when both --uamanyip
and --uamnatanyip are active and it defines a network that is excluded
from the uamnatanyip (only!). The option should really by called
"uamnatanyipexclude" to be more accurate. And, I have been asked to
introduce an option that actually DOES exclude a subnet from uamanyip
(i.e. to ignore/not-reply to ARP for this subnet). So, I'm considering
doing the following:

- Rename the option anyipexclude to uamnatanyipexclude and change the
description to "Subnet to exclude from uamnatanyip", and

- Add the option uamanyipexclude with description "Subnet to exclude
from uamanyip".

Thoughts?

Cheers,
David
