Title: windows agent: logwatch: no longer reports incorrect formatted texts (japanese characters)
Component: Core & Setup
Level: 1
Class: Bug Fix
Version: 1.2.5i6
Sometimes the windows agent read error texts out of dll files.
Most dll files were prefixed with <tt>%SystemRoot%</tt> which gets replaced by the real path.
However, there were instances were the prefix was <tt>%windir%</tt>.
This placeholder was not replaced correctly. As a result the dll were not found,
which lead to incorrect formatted texts.

Title: New screenshot mode for Multisite
Component: Multisite
Level: 1
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.2.5i6
If you add <tt>screenshotmode = True</tt> to your <tt>multisite.mk</tt> or add a <tt>?screenshotmode=1</tt>
to your URL, then Multisite will replace the fancy blue background by a plain white. This makes it easier
to screenshot parts of the GUI like configuration boxes, sidebar snapins, etc.

Title: New section header option "encoding"
Component: Checks & Agents
Level: 1
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.2.5i6
If you write your own check plugins you might know that a section
header can contain additional options separated by a colon.<br>
For example <tt><<<lnx_distro:sep(124):persist(141442125)>>></tt><br><br>
An additional option <tt>encoding</tt> has been introduced.
Generally all check plugins should output valid utf-8 encoded text.
In some instances this is not possible, because the plugin itself
has its own hardcoded encoding. With the encoding option you can specify
the encoding for this entire section.<br>
Check_MK will decode the given section output and recode it into utf-8 for
further processing.

Title: Linux agent now also sends information about tmpfs
Component: Checks & Agents
Level: 1
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.2.5i6
By default, the behavior of the df check is to ignore this filesystems.
If you want to see the temp filsystems you have to overwrite the inventory_df_exclude_fs variable in main.mk in the
following way: inventory_df_exclude_fs = [ 'tmpfs', 'nfs', 'smbfs', 'cifs', 'iso9660' ]
