Update ieee-oui.txt #233

Description

@pumalife

the one included in the arp-scan command is several years old. half of my devices show as unknown.
i tried to use the ARP_ARGS commands to use my own file, but it didnt recognize them. in the end i had to:

mount the internal file in my docker compose
volumes:
- ./data:/data/WatchYourLAN
- ./data/mac-vendor.txt:/etc/arp-scan/mac-vendor.txt:ro
- ./data/ieee-oui.txt:/usr/share/arp-scan/ieee-oui.txt:ro

i used this tool to recreate the out.txt - https://www.mankier.com/1/get-oui something like this could be integrated to periodically update automatically. as the ieeeoui files change quite frequently

and then had to wipe my entire database. as once the mac address is in the sqlite database it will reuse the HW from database instead of grabbing it from the fresh arp-scan. would be awesome if this wasnt so persistent, and could refresh on arp-scan. or jsut a manual refresh button in config.

Awesome Scanner. Ive tried a bunch of them, and this is simple and sweet. the others are very complex and not user friendly.
Thank you for releasing this awesome scanner!
