OPNsense 17.1.6 released

Good day everyone,

Other than the usual bulk of improvements, the Quagga plugin gained BGP support and the Phalcon framework is now able to run smoothly on PHP 7.1, which we are targeting for 17.7. The next bit of planned work in the 17.1 series is switching OpenVPN to version 2.4. It can already be reviewed in the development version.

Enjoy the security-silence this time around.
