 =item $nodeid = node_of $port
 Extracts and returns the node ID from a port ID or a node ID.

 Before a node can talk to other nodes on the network (i.e. enter
 "distributed mode") it has to initialise itself - the minimum a node needs
 to know is its own name, and optionally it should know the addresses of
 some other nodes in the network to discover other nodes.

 The first argument is a profile name. If it is C<undef> or missing, then
 the current nodename will be used instead (i.e. F<uname -n>).

 If the profile specifies a node ID, then this will become the node ID of
 this process. If not, then the profile name will be used as node ID. The
 special node ID of C<anon/> will be replaced by a random node ID.
