Crate macaddr

This crate provides types for a MAC address identifiers, both in IEEE EUI-48 and EUI-64 formats.

It is like a std::net::SocketAddr enum with std::net::SocketAddrV4 and std::net::SocketAddrV6 members, but for MAC addresses instead.

Obviously, MAC address can be represented as a [u8; 6] or [u8; 8], but it is error-prone and inconvenient, so here they are — MacAddr6 and MacAddr8 structs with helpful methods and standard Rust traits implementations to make them first-class Rust objects.

Serde support

Serde support can be enabled with a "serde_std" feature (disabled by default) if used in std-enabled builds.

This feature is called like this because of this Cargo bug.
"serde" feature is exists also, but it is intended to be used in the no_std builds.

No-std support

This crate can be used in a no_std builds with disabled "std" feature (enabled by default).

Enabled "serde" feature will add support for no_std serde serialization and deserialization.
