UDP and CoAP work now in the emulator, at least the one very simple test case I
have. Next I will write a simple ARP. After that we will need to integrate
with Ivan, and thereafter start to clean up the code. At the moment it is
quite messy. As before, the messy code is available in the feature-coap-wip
branch in Runtime.git.
