Vernon Mauery 7772254b62 lanplus: Auto-select 'best' cipher suite available ...

Based on current crypto alogrithms, one could rank cipher suites along
these lines:

17 > 3 >> all the rest

17 and 3 are the only cipher suites that implement any sort of
confidentiality alogorithm that is secure. In addition, any hmac-md5 or
md5 integrity algorithm used in integrity is weak at best and dangerous
for authentication.

This could possibly be enabled in a simpler mechanism by simply checking
for 17 and then choosing it before falling back to 3, but the way this
is implemented, it makes it easy to change the list of acceptable
algorithms from two to three or more items.

Move all files one level up in the file hierarcy, to avoid the useless ipmitool directory.
