This automatically configures the node in a supported format with the
highest amount of channels. Options are available to enable monitor
and to override the port channels as AUX or UNKNOWN.
Add an option to check if the rate and quantum configured with the
settings metadata is in the allowed range.
This is false by default, you can use metadata to set any rate/quantum
but in a minimal controlled setup you might want to restrict this.
Make the default nice.level an invalid value, that is not configured
as the priority on a process.
Explicitly enable a nice level on our daemon processes.
