Title: Faster link lookup to Check_MK host or service pages
Component: Notifications
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
Context variables HOSTURL and SERVICEURL now include the site key, this
enables a faster lookup and visualization of pages since Check_MK does not
need to resolve to which site the host belongs. This becomes especialy
relevant in distributed environments with multiple monitoring sites.

Title: slack: New notification plugin for slack
Component: Notifications
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.6.0i1
It is now possible to for Check_MK to send notifications about state
changes of hosts and services into a Slack channel.
Slack needs to be first configured to recieve messages from Check_MK. This
can be done by setting up a Webhook <a
href=\"https://my.slack.com/services/new/incoming-webhook/\"
target=\"_blank\"> here </a>, where you specify which channel wil recieve
the notifications. In Check_MK, under WATO->Notifications, create a new
notification rule. And select under Notification Method Slack. Copy the URL
that Slack gives you after completing the configuration into the Slack
Webhook-URL field. Optionally if you want sent messages to include
hyperlinks to Check_MK, enable the field URL prefix for links to Check_MK.

Title: CRE: Fixed Check_MK service crash if a check plugin is unknown to the check context
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
A host has discovered a set of check plugin names which are triggered by the
Check_MK service. If the agent type of this host changes without performing a
rediscovery afterwards and the configuration changes are activated then there
may be new or vanished check plugins which are unknown to the current check
context. This leads to a KeyError of the Check_MK service.
Now if a check plugin is unknown to the current check context Check_MK ignores
this check plugin. Aside from that the Check_MK Discovery service reports about
vanished or unmonitored serices.
