Monitoring Combined Network Interface Channels in Zabbix

I decided to add to Zabbix a check of the number of Combined channels of network interfaces, since when loading the server there could be different situations when my scripts changing their number were not always executed or were executed, but the value was reset during the system startup.

Also, be sure to disable hyper-threading in the BIOS, since load balancing on virtual cores can greatly increase the load on some physical cores.
