option to exclude specific mac/devices - feature request

[lazee486]

instead of a list of all devices, excluding some known unimportant ones would let me do a critical services dashboard - ie: dont need to see all my sonoff switches....if my wifi ap is offline, they will all be offline...

need clarification, the first part sounds like a simple blacklist of IPs would suffice (maybe with ranges too like SCAN_RANGE), second sounds like some sort of conditional blacklisting? former I could look into, latter I can't dedicate the time to.

blacklist of ips or macs would work (i can just make ips static in my dhcp) the second part was an example. my wifi ap is 192.168.1.9 so that stays visible - not excluded. my sonoff switches are 192.168.1.9 - 15. i dont need them visible, I know if the wifi 192.168.1.9 is off, so are they. to avoid cluttering up the flatline ui with all the uneeded devices. i was just thinking an x button on the edit page to flag it as do not display. but excluding from scan would work too.

@lazee486 implemented in the following branch: https://github.com/Miosame/flatline/tree/feature-ignore-range if you could test if it works for you too, I'll merge it into main-branch, cheers.
