[mrtg] Logscale and MaxBytes help

If using routers2 as your frontend, then add the
'routers.cgi*Options[]:rigid' option to make the MaxBytes the upper
limit and clip the displayed data.  

Otherwise, I think standard MRTG will always rescale upwards for data
exceeding MaxBytes, even if you have UnScaled set.  Scaled mode just
means the upperlimit for Y will be the Max of the data, Unscaled mode
means that the Y upperlimit is the max of the data and MaxBytes. (But
please correct me if I'm wrong... things change...)
