This adds support for the A1 hardware revision of the DIR-3040.
It is an exact copy of the DIR-3060 save for some cosmetic changes to the housing.
Even going so far as having the same FCC ID.

NOTE: Seems to only work in Firefox on Windows.
Tried with Chrome on Windows, Firefox in Linux, and Chromium in Linux.
None of these other browsers worked.

starts flashing (about 10 secs or so) while plugging in the power cable.
2. Give it ~30 seconds, to boot the recovery mode GUI
3. Connect your client computer to LAN1 of the device
4. Set your client IP address manually to 192.168.0.2 / 255.255.255.0.
5. Call the recovery page for the device at http://192.168.0.1/
6. Use the provided emergency web GUI to upload and flash a new firmware to the device
Thanks to @Lucky1openwrt and @iivailo for creating the DIR-3060 DTS file and related changes,
so it was possible for me to adapt them to the DIR-3040, build images,
test and fix minor issues.
