Manage Talkgroups on your Hotspot via Brandmeister-API

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

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.
