Enhance configuration and command files to support new distance metrics in message responses. Updated Keywords section to include {path_distance} and {firstlast_distance} placeholders. Refactored distance calculation methods into utils and improved path command logic for better accuracy in distance reporting. Added detailed logging for packet hash calculations and message handling in multitest command.
