QSFP+ data via i2c inteface. These constants has been taken
from SFF-8436 "QSFP+ 10 Gbs 4X PLUGGABLE TRANSCEIVER" standard
rev 4.8.
* Add support for printing QSFP+ information from 40G NICs
such as Chelsio T5.
This commit does not contain ioctl changes necessary for this
functionality work, there will be another commit soon.

most often used with network interfaces.
The SFF-8472 standard defines the information that can be retrieved
from an optic or a copper cable plugged into a NIC, most often
referred to as SFP+. Examples of values that can be read
include the cable vendor's name, part number, date of manufacture
as well as running data such as temperature, voltage and tx
and rx power.
Copious comments on how to use these values with an I2C interface
are given in the header file itself.
