Should this really be BB dependent? #19

Sure, I ported this to BBB, but in fact it would appear what I've ended up with is something that simply should work on both (albeit the Install info is now BBB specific).

I need to ponder whether I want to keep this BBB specific and remove RPi code, or keep it more general. eg, what can a BBB do that RPi can't that'd be useful (eg, realtime units) beyond the number of GPIO pins.

An example of where a Real Time Unit would be very useful would be in pressure monitoring, and certainly on some systems over-temperature is very much unwanted so perhaps even realtime temperature capability would be nice. But even then, those things are capabilities, not must haves.

If the aim is to be platform neutral then the name should reflect this as well.

When porting to Python3, with a view to splitting out the flask stuff so it can become far more nimble, I just got sick of seeing the special casing when I don't use RPi at my place. So. Gone in changes 68a892f040a9df7da33329279f6a50eb7f8a1a39 and 6390dde02b41a6ca8be073f495ba70c48d423564
