sebingel 0aa4536983 makes PIHOLEAPI report a failed TLS certificate check as such
With "Verify SSL" working, the login request checks the Pi-hole
certificate when that setting is on. In a live test with the setting on
and Pi-hole behind a reverse proxy with an untrusted certificate, the
login failed with "Connection error during Pi-hole auth. Check
PIHOLEAPI_URL and PIHOLEAPI_PASSWORD", although URL and password were
right. requests.exceptions.SSLError is a subclass of ConnectionError, so
the certificate error fell into that branch.

Changes:
- pihole_api_auth() catches requests.exceptions.SSLError before
  ConnectionError (server/plugins/pihole_api_scan/pihole_api_scan.py) and
  logs: "TLS certificate check failed during Pi-hole auth: <error>. Turn
  off PIHOLEAPI_VERIFY_SSL if Pi-hole uses a self-signed certificate."
- test/plugins/test_pihole_api_scan_verify_ssl.py: _login_failure() runs
  pihole_api_auth() with a failing login request.
  test_certificate_error_points_to_verify_ssl_setting checks the new
  message (fails without this change);
  test_plain_connection_error_still_points_to_url_and_password checks
  that other connection errors keep the old one.

Impact:
A user who turns on "Verify SSL" while Pi-hole uses a self-signed or
otherwise untrusted certificate gets a log line that names the cause and
the setting. Other connection errors are reported as before.

NetAlertX modules

The original pilaert.py code is now moved to this new folder and split into different modules.

Module Description
__main__.py The MAIN program of NetAlertX
__init__.py an empty init file
README.md this readme file
../server/plugins a folder containing all plugins that publish notifications or scan for devices
api.py updating the API endpoints with the relevant data.
appevent.py TBC
const.py A place to define the constants for NetAlertX like log path or config path.
conf.py conf.py holds the configuration variables and makes them available for all modules. It is also the workaround for global variables that need to be resolved at some point
database.py This module connects to the DB, makes sure the DB is up to date and defines some standard queries and interfaces.
device.py The device module looks after the devices and saves the scan results into the devices
flows.py TBC
helper.py Helper as the name suggest contains multiple little functions and methods used in many of the other modules and helps keep things clean
initialise.py Initiatlise sets up the environment and makes everything ready to go
logger.py Logger is there the keep all the logs organised and looking identical.
networscan.py Networkscan collects the scan results (maybe to merge with reporting.py)
notification.py Creates and handles the notification object and generates ther HTML and text variants of the message
plugin.py This is where the plugins get integrated into the backend of NetAlertX
plugin_utils.py Helper utilities for plugin.py
reporting.py Reporting collects the data for the notification reports
scheduler.py All things scheduling
