The idea is that multiple agents can be deployed in different parts of the network and be controlled from a central server. Having the agents receive job requests from an MQTT broker should be easier than routing HTTP to the agents. This commit has - REST API (server.py) refactored a bit so that the requesthandler subclasses mainly handle HTTP and actual business logic is elsewhere, such as the job dispatch logic - the main app starts an mqtt client either in server or agent mode - note that the mqtt client expects to be supported by an external runloop (this is the case currently) - currently submitting jobs to a server causes them be relayed to an agent TODO: - provide an agent list on the GUI - GUI to have option to start jobs either at server, or at agents or maybe both - figure out how to access the scan results of agents
- PoC CLI to request results over MQTT. Not sure if the CLI will ever be useful but at least it can be used to debug and test mqtt

Agent/server model using MQTT.
The idea is that multiple agents can be deployed in different parts of the network
and be controlled from a central server. Having the agents receive job requests
from an MQTT broker should be easier than routing HTTP to the agents.
