'''Alert plugin that handles messages (alerts) that we want to enrich with
information about DHCP IP loans. Where possible, adding information about
the MAC address and the user to whom an IP was assigned can make triaging,
for example port scan alerts, substantially easier.
This plugin will add the following fields to the alert:
```json
{
"details": {
"ipassignment": {
"mac": "ab12ce34de56f",
"user": "user@mozilla.com"
}
}
}
```
The plugin will also append the above information to the summary like so:
```
<original summary>; IP assigned to <user> (<mac>)
```
so that, for example,
> "Port scan from 1.2.3.4"
becomes
> "Port scan from 1.2.3.4; IP assigned to user@mozilla.com (ab12ce34de56f)
Finally, the plugin also sets `details.username` to the user found.
