Manage Talkgroups on your Hotspot via Brandmeister-API

A BIG thank you to @cascha42 for the initial program!

Original code by cascha42

Modifications to original code

• Moved important variable settings out of the main program and into a config file.
• Updated code base to work with the new Brandmeister API version (v2).
• Fixed the jq parsing errors.
• Minor usability and UI changes.
• Added caching of TS, TG and hotspot information. Any changes made to the timeslots and talkgroups will trigger a refresh of the information, otherwise the program uses the cache file.
• Added option to force cache refresh.
• Added an option to show basic hotspot information.
• Added a double confirmation to the "Drop ALL Static TGs" menu option.

POSSBILE Updates

[ ] Move to dialog or zenity
[ ] Additional menu options (there's a LOT of things you can do with the API)
[ ] Merge current code with original code base.
