Improve Internet Bandwidth Sharing Interface

[wrought]

Feature

While speaking with the LAmeshnet folks yesterday, Daniel had a really good idea to help end users know how many users can be supported when they share a selected percentage of their upload and download bandwidth. This could be built on top of Marc's suggestion of also probing the network in order to make a recommendation to the user, based on the performance speed at that moment. I am also curious if there is some way to perform such testing regularly, or even on-the-fly. E.g. probe every hour, and update if the change fits in a tolerance? It's unclear, but I think heuristics could be used, but that's far off.

I made some mock-ups of what this could look like:

Select "Test bandwidth" button

@todo

• Decide how to represent / scale the number of users based on selected upload/download speeds (the math).
• Decide recommendation algorithm for internet sharing.
  • Could maybe scope this based on use case, or user-submitted data
    • For instance, there could be options for "in the home" or "at the office" or "in a public place"
    • Perhaps this should be informed by data.
• _Question:_ Are we able to aggregate or detect any data of how much users are sharing?
• Implement math functions
• Implement interface similar to as depicted above

Made a wiki page for all mockups in the future:

This library may help for setting up Luci / bootstrap compatible sliders: http://www.eyecon.ro/bootstrap-slider/

This may require changes for node interface, node firmware, and node server in order to set arbitrary values (e.g. up to 1 or 2 decimal points).
