Description

This patch fixes the followings bugs found in the
license processing binary (filtrator):

USER_REMOVED lines
------------------

Filtrator now correctly handles USER_REMOVED lines
from FLEXlm debug log files.

License mapping files
---------------------

A bug in the parsing of the mapping file could cause
filtrator to crash when parsing 

  license-user-mapping

or

  license-host-mapping

LUM host names
--------------

A bug in license data collection (fixed by #371) caused LUM
node names to include the serial numbers, giving hostnames
like this:

  CAD-NODE-1.us(#194.19.77.134) Serial Number_ 72211XB1934

This patch updates the back-end processing so it filters
out that serial number for the hostnames in collected data.

After installing the patch regenerate data with

  /opt/openit/bin/regenerate_data

to get correct hostnames in the database.
