Numerous Updates to support standard "Modbus RTU" messages and improved
decoding of Register response data.  This commit should be considered a
checkpoint, as I still have a few more register/response types to handle but
I've ran out of steam for now.  I have tried to make any modifications as clean
as possible but I'm not a developer by trade so I'm open to any suggestions for
improvements to the code.

- Some re-factoring to include support for serial Modbus RTU encapsulated in
TCP messages
- Minor text/syntax clean-up
- Include decoding of holding/input response register data
- Optionally decode holding/input registers as UINT16, UINT32, 32-bit Float
IEEE/Modicon
- Added various register address formatting options as "Raw", "Modicon
5-digit", "Modicon 6-digit"
- Added several user configuration options to handle the above options; Modbus
does not inherently specify many of the internal formatting options, so leave
it up to the user to choose how to format the responses.
- Added some extensive source comments to explain differences/similarities
between Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU messages as well as explain "Modicon vs. Raw"
register addressing.

I have attached an archive containing several pcap files showing examples of
many message types and showing how the decoding options work.

Please feel free to contact me if there are any questions!
