w1: reply only to the requester portid
Unicast one wire replies back to the sender portid to avoid multiple programs getting each other's messages, especially as the response can't be uniquely identified with the sequence coming from the requesting program when both programs generate the same id. Continue to broadcast events such as add/remove master/slave devices.
