    PostgreSQL type extensions for IP and MAC addresses.
    
    I needed to record IP and MAC level ethernet addresses in a data
    base, and I really didn't want to store them as plain strings, with
    no enforced error checking, so I put together the accompanying code
    as my first experiment with adding a data type to PostgreSQL.  I
    then thought that this might be useful to others, both directly and
    as a very simple example of how to do this sort of thing, so here
    it is, in the hope that it will be useful.
