Names changed, and functionality verified. Merged into master.
Now I just need to build a circuit so I can use this to cut the 5V feed
on my bus, for full remote restarts in case of some odd hangs I have not
yet been able to isolate the source of.. What I'm seeing is that the bus
(~80m, 7 DS18S20, 16 DS18B20, 4 DS2406, 1 custom slave) starts going
between empty/short during scans. Keeping bus low for any time does not
help, only dropping 5V seems to resolve the issue (and no, disconnecting
the custom slave does not help. It was the first thing tested)
If anyone else has seen, or even better, solved, similar issues, ideas
are welcome!

Indeed, one is read only and one is write only. The reasoning
behind two separate nodes is that the actual commands to the Link
is either "Set high", "Set low", or "Put in Hi-Z mode and read".
That is, reading means any previous output will be invalidated as
it will no longer "supply" a high/low level.
How about auxctrl and auxsense, to avoid mixup with other "power"
entries (which indicates powered or parasite)?

The LINK adapter has an extra AUX line which can be used as a
general I/O port (somewhat limited though).
Some background, from LinkUSB manual page:
---
The LinkUSBTM supports the standard RJ45 type 1-Wire bus
connection wherein the center two contacts of the RJ
connector are the data and ground connections to the 1- Wire
bus. However, another pin in the RJ connector is also brought
into play. This line is, by default, driven to the high
impedance state and left un-powered. It can be an output
supplying a low level (0 VDC) or a high level (5 VDC), or it
can be an input sensing a 0- 5VDC logic level. When set to
the 5V level by the “d” command, this line can be used to
provide power for DS2409 and DS2406/7 type 1-Wire switches.
However, the current available from this output is limited.
The amount of current that the Aux line can provide is
limited to approximately 75 mA. ASCII commands used by the
host can cause the Auxiliary I/O pin to change its behavior
as needed.

The other Link devices have the same, somewhat different
details though, mainly with regards to power levels.
I've added some code to control this line via owfs, commited
in branch link-aux:
https://sourceforge.net/p/owfs/code/ci/fca93b164f8b5f0fd0f97bb66d0be7081c751384/
It basically adds two new points in the filesystem:
/bus.N/interface/settings/ link/auxin
/bus.N/interface/settings/link/auxout
This is visible for Link devices only. Auxin allows putting
the AUX pin in hi-z mode, and reading the current value.
auxout puts the pin in high or low mode.
Is this a good solution? It isn't really a "setting", but it
belongs under /bus.0/interface.
Also, I didn't put auxin/out on the same node, since sending
the "read aux" command will actually put it in Hi-z mode
rather than just read it.
Reading from auxout is not doable right now, it would only be
able to reply the latest written value, which may or may not
be correct, so I skipped support for reading.
Let me know how if you think this fits in with the rest of
OWFS, or if it should be solved differently.

Johan
