hub-programmer should use formal hub address in its command line arguements #2

Right now, the hub being targeted for an update is specified as a port index (0, 1, ..). But this differs from the usual way of specifying a hub's location, which is bits 15-8 in the device address. I think we should use the hub address instead (0, 256, 512, etc).

Either that or the hub index (0,1,2), since addresses are also represented as A.B, but you are right that maintaining proper hub indexing

I think maintaining our formal addressing system will allow us to reduce surprise in general.
