Add a new configuration section phc2sys which is ignored by ptp4l. It
may be worth adding a "port:" prefix to all per-port configuration in
the configuration file (and deprecate the old syntax) in order to allow
full expression of subsections and port names. Currently it will not be
possible for a network device name to match a subsection name. This is
not a large problem at present, however.
