Ethernet audio library

[shawn]

Detection: you can either poll the link state (if the driver supports it, and the Teensy 4.1 driver does) or add a listener.
See:

• Ethernet.linkState() (see the QNEthernet.h source code for docs)
• Ethernet.linkStatus() (same here)
• How to use listeners

Managing disconnect, some options:
On connections that hang around after cable disconnect

Thanks Shawn,

I'm still sorting out issues with the cable being plugged in well-after boot-up and disconnections longer than about 30 seconds. However these can be sorted out amongst other things during extended testing.

The new library is published at https://github.com/palmerr23/EtherAudio

While it runs fairly smoothly, beware that it is still ***alpha*** code .

A substantial quantity of diagnostic prints are embedded in the library code. They can (mostly) be disabled by commenting out the #define XX_debug lines in the header files.
