[Xymon] Add a new header on xymon page

[Steven Carr]

So are you wanting to monitor each port as a separate service or all on the
ports page?

Ports uses the `netstat` command to determine what ports are in use on the
system, when the client data is sent to Xymon this is then controlled by
the analysis.cfg (hobbit-clients.cfg) to determine which ports to look for
and how many there should be (set to 0 so that it will alert if a port
becomes active - e.g. we have this set for telnet as none of our servers
should have telnet enabled).

Or you can get the Xymon server to probe the client to check from a remote
perspective if the ports/service are up and running (check the
hosts.cfg/bb-hosts man page for a list of all of the built in tests you can
use, or write your own extensions).
