Support IPv6 in automation

[bmfmancini]

Hello All,

Currently automation does not support IPv6 as the move from ipv4 to ipv6 occurs this will be a crucial feature for autom8

[bmfmancini]

Looks like its a matter of updating the regex here

function automation_get_next_host($start, $total, $count, $range) {
	if ($count == $total || $total < 1) {
		return false;
	}

	if (preg_match('/^([0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.)\*(\.[0-9]{1,3})$/', $range, $matches)) {
		// 10.1.*.1
		return $matches[1] . ++$count . $matches[2];

to include a or statment to match for an IPv6 match

I found one here

It's a much larger change I think.
