A timeout of 15 seconds is not always acceptable, make it configurable.
By popular consensus, instead of using a linear number of seconds, use
the 2^N format for the time interval, just like the other intervals in
the PTP data sets. In addition to numeric values, let the configuration
file support 'ASAP' to have the fault reset immediately.
[RC - moved the handling of special case tmo=0 and added a break out
of the fd event loop in case the fds have been closed.
- changed the linear seconds option to log second instead.
- changed the commit message to reflect the final version. ]

The Linux kernel supports a hardware time stamping mode that allows
sending a one step sync message. This commit adds support for this mode
by expanding the time stamp type enumeration. In order to enable this
mode, the configuration must specify both hardware time stamping and set
the twoStepFlag to false.
We still do not support the one step peer delay request mechanism since
there is neither kernel nor hardware support for it at this time.

this patch changes sk_interface_phc to sk_get_ts_info, by allowing the function
to store all the data returned by Ethtool's get_ts_info IOCTL in a struct. A new
struct "sk_ts_info" contains the same data as well as a field for specifying the
structure as valid (in order to support old kernels without the IOCTL). The
valid field should be set only when the IOCTL successfully populates the fields.
A follow-on patch will add new functionality possible because of these
changes. This patch only updates the programs which use the call to perform the
minimum they already do, using the new interface.

this patch modifies the pi servo to add a configurable max offset (default
infinity). When ever the detected offset is larger than this value, the clock
will jump and reset the servo state. The value of this feature is for decreasing
time to stabalize when clock is off by a large ammount during late running. This
can occur when the upstream master changes, or when the clock is reset due to
outside forces. The method used to reset clock is simply to reset the pi servo
to the unlocked state.

this patch enables the configuration file to define per-port specific

This patch creates a global heading for an INI style configuration file. The
parser allows the default state to be global without the header as well as to
use global. A future patch will enable per-port configuration settings.

This patch adds a flag field for setting overflag flags so that command line
options override any value in the configuration file. This will be done by
ensuring the flags set whether the config parser accepts the values specified.
This patch also streamlines the handling for the slave only command line
option, as it no longer needs special treatment.

this patch allows each port to maintain its own pod structure since it is only
