WishList: provide option 'cumul' for month daily event outputs

[SBFspot]

dear all, this is an item for the wishlist,
including a request for comment by:

the users that had problems that did raise the question for this option

candidate/users of this option

rational: in the past several issues have been raised by the users that were related to:

last day in a month missing in the monthly file
last records "minutes" missing in the daily file

last records missing in the events file (new in v240)

a simple workaround is that one should execute SMAspot with the options -am2 -ad2 -ae2
in stead of the default values (1),
the drawback, more interaction with the inverter, can be handled with two different cron or scheduler tasks

one that runs each 5minutes, options -am0 -ad0 -e0, which requests only for the SPOTvalues

one that is run less often, eg each hour, options -am2 -ad2 -ae2 -sp0, for other then SPOTvalues

as is explained in Google-issue G083 there is as well a benefit for a cumulative output,
resulting in the options:

wishitem-13-1 - for cumulative month results
-amcumul this gives a table with the end-of-day records of the last 40days,

wishitem-13-2 - for cumulative daily results
-adcumul this gives a table with the 5min-records of the last 48hours,

wishitem-10-1 - for cumulative events
-aecumul this gives a table with alle events during the last 48hours, (this wish is = w10-1)

in view of the expected usage of these options, the outputs from SMAspot (.csv and output-log) can bear a fixed name (eg via a parameter "outputpath-cumul"=path\filename)
if that parameter is not used then the default filenames apply
