the use of hashmaps is just hopelessly outdated.

with the PacketVar descriptor, one can simply address data in packets.

this also adds support for network byte order, and minor improvements.

See merge request teichman/ebpfcat!15

this also improves readabiliy

especially the reverse divisions were incorrect. Now the code
is shorter as well.

this modifies the tests to do some multiplication not long -
but it actually seems legit.

this makes a difference with signed extension to 64 bit

this is not actually related to the ebpfcat PacketVar, but kinda
similar.

See merge request !14

this improves ethercat compatibility by actually setting the correct PDO size and other minor details.

See merge request teichman/ebpfcat!12

we still have to artificially tell that this is a float
value, although that's actually in the SDO.

we used to initialize the sync manager to what was
in the eeprom, which is big enough normally, but not always.

Now we read out the pdo assignment first, and set the sync
manager size accordingly.

for most operations, pre-operational is good enough a state.
By thinko we went to safe operational, which is not needed.

the Leybold TurboVac does not like to be put into operational unless
it is already getting PDO data. This actually seems like a good idea.
