[suggestion] determine what to blink out based on subnet mask

[jhollowe]

I'm not sure how easy it would be to get the subnet mask, but it would be cool if you use that to determine how much of the IP to blink out. You would probably want to round down the subnet so any partial-octet mask (i.e. /18) would blink out any variable octet (i.e. the last 2 octets). For example, if my subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 (/24), you could only blink out the last octet.

It would also be cool to have a mode argument that allows using the existing logic, subnet mask based logic, and a logic that blinks out the entire IP.

Send me a pull request and I might integrate it.
