0f081b7b2e Issue 583 (#586)
* s/bandwidth/bitrate/ in user-facing places.  Towards #583.

iperf3 has long misused terminology; bandwidth is a measure of
capacity.  iperf3 measures bitrate or throughput.  We standardize
on "bitrate" because it begins with the same letter as "bandwidth"
(to match the -b command-line option).

User-facing output mentioning "bandwidth" now uses "bitrate".
The long command-line option for -b (--bandwidth) is now --bitrate
(--bandwidth is transparently accepted for backward compatibility).
A few places in documentation that talk about bandwidth as a
measured value have been reworded to use bitrate or throughput.

There are a number of places in code where variables are still
called "bandwidth".  We leave these alone for now.

A mention of "bandwidth" in the test parameters JSON also needs
to remain unchanged to avoid breaking compatibility.  However,
the test results JSON never used the term "bandwidth" in
the first place.

* s/bandwidth/throughput in one place in RPM description.  Towards #583.

Update manpage rendering for the Web site.
While here, add a few words of explanation that the manpage might
not correspond to a current version of iperf3 (at this moment in
time, it in fact is from the not-yet-released iperf-3.2).

a51045de19 Service Authentication (#517)
Add an optional mode that requires clients to authenticate with the server.

In this mode, clients need to provide a username and a password, which are checked against a password file on the server.  The authentication credentials are protected by an RSA public keypair...the encrypted credentials are sent along with the test parameters.

Operationally the use of this feature places the following additional requirements on the build and installation of iperf3:

o The presence of the OpenSSL headers and libraries to build iperf3, and the libraries available on the client and server at runtime.

o Generation of an RSA public keypair; the private part is used by the server and the public part must be distributed to the clients.

o Username/password pairs for all authorized users, to be stored in a file on the server.

o Loose time synchronization between the server and clients (to within approximately 30 seconds).

o Appropriate command-line flags given on the client and server.

Note that iperf3 can be built and run as before, without fulfilling any of these requirements.

Partial documentation for this feature is included in this commit.  It is anticipated that additional documentation text and editing will follow this merge.

Submitted by @ralcini.  First suggested by @codyhanson in pull request #242.

Add -X to restrict SCTP binding to a subset of interfaces.
Contains an alternate implementation of previously-submitted patches
to set the maximum segment size and no-delay options.

As a result of this change, SCTP functionality on Linux will generally
require the libsctp library (on CentOS and similar distributions this
is provided by the lksctp-tools RPM).

Part of #131.
