    cmdmon: drop handling of NULL and LOGON requests
    
    Handle the NULL and LOGON requests as unknown (invalid) instead of
    returning the success and failed status respectively. They have
    been unused for very long time now.

    cmdmon: refactor command authorization checks
    
    Try to simplify the code and make it more robust to potential bugs.
    
    Instead of maintaing a table mapping all commands to open/auth
    permissions, use a short list of open commands. Split the processing
    of the commands into two groups, read-write commands and read-only
    (monitoring) commands, where the first group is processed only with full
    access. Check both the socket descriptor and address type before giving
    full access. While moving the code, reorder the commands alphabetically.

    cmdmon: make open commands configurable
    
    Replace the hardcoded list of open commands (accessible over UDP),
    with a list that can be configured with a new "opencommands" directive.
    The default matches the original list. All read-only commands except
    accheck and cmdaccheck can be enabled. The naming follows the chronyc
    naming. Enable the N_SOURCES request only when needed.
    
    This makes it possible to have a full monitoring access without access
    to the Unix domain socket. It also allows restricting the monitoring
    access to a smaller number of commands if some commands from the default
    list are not needed.
    
    Mention in the man page that the protocol of the non-default commands is
    not consider stable and the information they provide may have security
    implications.
