From: Antonio Quartulli antonio@open-mesh.com
Some flags (i.e. the WIFI flag) may change after that the related client has already been announced. However it is useful to informa the rest of the network about this change.
Add a runtime-flag-switch detection mechanism and re-announce the related TT entry to advertise the new flag value.
This mechanism can be easily exploited by future flags that may need the same treatment.
