torouter dreamplug update to debian wheezy and 3.2 kernel

wheezy (debian testing) probably be released in the next few months, so it seems reasonable to develop torouter for that target to ensure stability over the next few years. Also, several DreamPlug-specific changes were upstreamed into the mainline kernel and are present in wheezy.

AFAIK the required code changes would be updating the freedom-maker folder in torouter.git to a more recent version (either directly from b'dale or from nickdaly's version on github), redo source.list entries (backports not necessary?), and test that all required packages exist and function as expected under wheezy.

One road-blocker is that the more recent kernel seems to require an updated version of the u-boot bootloader on the DreamPlug, and the upgrade process requires the

The WiFi chipset still requires some third-party firmware and kernel module compilation (uap8xxx.ko == libertas_uap) with the 3.2 kernel.

Thoughts?
