In order to protect both IXP operator and IXP participants, we should ensure that using arouteserver never leads to an insecure mode of operation. While arouteserver should offer a degree on flexibility in terms of fine tuning what IRRs are used, whether ARIN WHOIS or RPKI is used or not - there should not be a configuration path that leads to no filters at all. Offering fully insecure modes is not user friendly. This fixes #22
