[RIPE Atlas Ambassadors] Software vs Hardware probes

Hi,

Probes should be tagged either as 'software' or with their hardware 
'version', v[1-4]. V3 == tp-link, V4 == nanopi.

For the sake of reference and for the list, the hardware versions are 
described at the bottom of this page: https://atlas.ripe.net/about/probes/

The API will filter by tag if you ask it; for example, 
https://atlas.ripe.net/api/v2/probes/?tags=system-v4, or 
system-software, etc.

Cheers,

S.
