Remove collection membership

With the Software Assignment plugin, computers can only be added to collections. Removing membership rules is nevertheless indirectly possible.

When a computer is added to an uninstall collection, it is automatically removed from the parallel installation collection, and vice versa.

For this to work, only the following two configuration parameters need to be set in the WebService.
