Subject: [PATCH] Updated dispatcher service (librenms-service.py) to accept a
 group list (#13413)

* Updated dispatcher service (librenms-service.py) to accept a list
of poller group identifiers to service multiple groups simultaneously
from a single instance.

This change does not preclude the user from running multiple
independent dispatcher service instances to service different poller
group identifiers.

* Corrected linting error
