Redesigned installer, diagnostic tools, and improved proxy support

The installer for the Lastline Enterprise Sensor appliance has been redesigned in order to simplify the installation process, and proactively detect problems with the installation environment.

The "lastline_test_appliance" command has been added to allow diagnosing issues with the appliance or the deployment environment.

Additional views have been introduced for viewing comments about analysis reports, network events and network incidents. This makes it more practical for users to take advantage of the existing commenting feature to share information about an analysis or incident.
