Until today, Sniffnet tagged as 'Unknown location' all IP addresses for which it wasn't possible to determine the origin.
This PR adds support for tagging bogon IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
Note
Some IP addresses and IP ranges are reserved for special use, such as for local or private networks, and should not appear on the public internet.
These reserved ranges, along with other IP ranges that haven't yet been allocated and therefore also shouldn't appear on the public internet are sometimes known as bogons.
Sniffnet will now represent with a lock icon that a connection was established with a bogon IP address, and hovering on it will show additional details about such IP.
Fixes #209.
