Ok, I have made the name change.
I agree the EtherNet/IP is a stupid name, they should have picked something
else since it's not Ethernet that it's dependent on.

Well, the real name should perhaps be "IP/IP", as, given that it runs on
top of TCP or UDP, I'm not sure where it depends on Ethernet.
But, with the parenthetical "(Industrial Protocol)", that should make it
clear enough, I suspect.
We might as well call it "packet-enip.c" again, with that. Gerald, we
should probably check this one in; don't do the next release until it
goes in.
