Primary key in radacct table

[Marinko Tarlac]

acctuniqueid is not unique in default configuration. according to my
experience, problem with duplicated session is very strange. My NAS (Mtik
2.9.x and Mtik 3.x) sends duplicated session ids but almost in the same
time. For example one session is started now and the second one is
transfered 1 second later.
