This simplifies definition of bitfields, which would otherwise require specifying ctypes ctypes.
The buggy code used c_uint for all integer fields, resulting in the SpreadSpectrum struct being padded out to 32 bits instead of being 16 bits. The fix uses the field() helper function to specify the correct ctype to use, greatly simplifying the process of defining bitfields.
The bytesize can be calculated from the field descriptions, simplifying the interface and reducing the chance of human error.

This PR fixes a bug in #73 that caused
SpreadSpectrum's struct to be created with 32 bits instead of 16 bits. The use ofc_uintfor all integer fields was the direct cause.Changes:
ctypestypes, devs pass a bitfield.INTEGER constant and a bitsize.bytesize=argument is removed;marshalledSizeof bitfields is calculated on creation with a sanity check._field()helper function converts the field description to an appropriate_fields_class variable, deciding the appropriatectypestype to use.
