Add support for UDP multicast #83

Open jeremyroy opened 2 years ago

jeremyroy commented 2 years ago

Some sensors publish UDP data to multicast addresses (e.g. 224.0.2.2). It would be nice if the udp_driver could intercept multicast traffic and forward it to topic /udp_read.

Example implementation: https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/doc/html/boost_asio/example/multicast/receiver.cpp
