Use inline functions to convert buffer data to scalars.
* include/host2net.h (buf16_to_ulong, buf16_to_uint): New. (buf16_to_ushort, buf16_to_u16): New. (buf32_to_size_t, buf32_to_ulong, buf32_to_uint, buf32_to_u32): New.
This fixes sign extension on shift problems. Hanno Böck found a case
with an invalid read due to this problem. To fix that almost all uses
of "<< 24" and "<< 8" are changed by this patch to use an inline
function from host2net.h.
