[issue1138] grml should not send any data w/o _asking the user first_

[Daniel Mitzlaff]

New submission from Daniel Mitzlaff <grml.org at hackbyte.de>:

The actual grml release 2011.12/Knecht Rootrecht sends some data @boot to its
servers here. Well, it's fine. Mostly. But in some countries this can violate
several Laws, and more on, it's not fine to give the user a software that phones
to home immediately - and whitout notice! - after boot.
Please give the user a clear hint about this on the download dialogue and/or -
more important - change the behavior of this feature from a cryptic opt-out
variant via "nostats" cheatcode to a transparent opt-in feature, eventually via
the quickconfig menu.
