* Add a control module to support the current Amcrest HTTP API
This patch adds ZoneMinder::Control::Amcrest_HTTP
This module is adapted and improved from one available on the ZoneMinder
forums.[1] It appears that a number of individuals have contributed to
it. This is an attempt to correct some of its interactions with ZM::Control
and friends as well as enhance and extend supported control features
for Amcrest cameras.
This work is based on Amcrest HTTP Protocol API Specifications

* Fixing zoom methods
* Misc. cleanup of comments, etc.
* Fixing up POD, etc.
* Converting line endings to Unix
* Fixing up preset methods
The current Amcrest HTTP API does not support a Home command per se. So this
method is set up to send the camera to the first preset position. Of course,
this presupposes that the user will setup a preset #1 otherwise the command
will fail on a bad preset error.
If a future version of the API supports a true Home command, we'll adjust
at that point. For now this seems to be a useful workaround.
* Removing duplicate home method
* Adding moveAbs method
I'm putting this in, but absolute camera movement does not seem to be well
supported in the classic skin ATM. Reading
www/skins/classic/include/control_functions.php seems to indicate
a faulty implementation, unless I'm reading it wrong. I see nowhere
where the user is able to specify the absolute location to move to. Rather,
the call is passed back movement in increments of 1 unit. At least with the
Amcrest/Duhua API this would result in the camera moving to the 1* or 0* etc.
position.
moveAbsUp, Down, Left, Right, etc. Doesn't make sense given the definition
of Absolute movement.
* Adding a note about the moveMap method
This method does not appear to be implemented in the classic skin,
but we'll leave it here for future implementation. Caveat: It may
or may not work as-is.
* Fixing up zoomConTele/Wide methods
* Adding a vanilla control type for the Amcrest HTTP API
Please note that this control type matches (mostly) the currently
available control options in Amcrest_HTTP.pm. It does not match
all (or possibly any) of the control options available on a specific
Amcrest camera. The user may need to create their own control type
specific to the camera model they are using.
* Removing misplaced comment
Thanks to connortechnology for pointing this out!
* Control plugin for Dahua PTZ cameras
* Update http/https protocol handling
* Update doc and license
* Remove license from top of file
* Use named regex capture groups for ControlAddress parsing
* Remove trailing whitespace in Trendnet.pm
* implement website monitor
* don't check certain fields when using website monitor
* continue to fix javascript errors for website monitors
* check $monitor, not $new_monitor here
* add website monitor documentation
was somehow left out of the initial commit
* fix corruption of functions.php
* add missing comma
* remove errors by testing for existence of key. If it's a new monitor, then none of the keys will be valid
* If the monitor type is WebSite, then default Status to Running.
* put back start function that got lost in merge. Don't start StreamCmd's if it's a WebSite
* Add midding comma
* Hide unrelated tabs when type is WebSite. Put back input fields for Type=WebSite
* Don't show control or any of the status fields for WebSite type monitors
* add some parenthesis to ensure order of operations, seems to fix fps and status fields not being shown for regular monitors
