The previous implementation of the option "mode" in service_discovery did not allow a handling in the same way as in other webapi requests like including it into the request part. This is now fixed. The old behaviour is still supported.

old only supported this syntax: curl "http://localhost/$OMD_SITE/check_mk/webapi.py?action=discover_services&_username=automation&_secret=$(cat $OMD_ROOT/var/check_mk/web/automation/automation.secret)&mode=refresh" -d 'request={"hostname":"heute"}'

newly supported and now coherent to other calls: curl "http://localhost/$OMD_SITE/check_mk/webapi.py?action=discover_services&_username=automation&_secret=$(cat $OMD_ROOT/var/check_mk/web/automation/automation.secret)" -d 'request={"hostname":"heute", "mode":"refresh"}'
