Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Enabling lldpd (https://packages.debian.org/buster/lldpd) by default would allow the controller to identify the connected network port / switch. This is extremely helpful in diagnostics and scenarios where we are POE powering controllers and need to cycle power.

Describe the solution you'd like
Include lldpd package with FPP install. Ideall the details avaiable from lldpctl would be presented in Troubleshooting -> Networking.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Manually enabling it. I currently have tested on both Pi 4 and BBB and both platforms support it. Running testing this week to see if it impacts FPP performance.
