Prevents system to crash in case of bad configuration

This is an important bug fix release.
In all previous versions, there is a risk to create a kernel panic in case of issue in the configuration file : this issue is corrected.
(You can prevent this issue in previous releases by testing the configuration file first).

In addition, Disable is implemented for all sections for 6.x (even if it is currently useless until control topics are implemented).

** Configuration file has to be modified **
In preparation of v6.x, all section must have an unique ID.

Add FFV offset and 1-wire alarms
