Library to read X-Plane metrics sent over UDP.

Instantiate a `NewListener` and run `Start()` in its own goroutine

```

l, err := xpmetrics.NewListener("127.0.0.1:49012")

go l.Start()

```

X-Plane send 6 float32 per metrics type (XPMsg)

```

v, ok := l.Data.Query(xpmetrics.LatLonAltMsg)

lat := v[0]

```

Or use some helper functions

```

hdg, ok := l.Data.Compass()

```

To activate UDP Data Output in X-Plane go to the settings | Data Output tabs | Check a line as Network via UDP.  

On the same page on the right check send network data output and set the IP Address and Port of the listener.
