Bug Description

Attached is patch (against version 1.13) that adds two new options:

-n / --ipmerge - merge log entries that differ only by IPv4 address

-p / --portmerge - merge log entries that differ only by IPv4 port number

This allows the user to detect events characterized by large numbers of log entries but originating from many different IP addresses (or IP address / port number combinations).
