uefi-raw: add convenient From impls + integration with core::net

- added missing conversions between core::net types and the uefi-raw
  net types
- added missing conversions for "typical byte arrays"

 - Added `::octets()` for `Ipv4Address`, `Ipv6Address`, and
   `MacAddress` to streamline the API with `core::net`.
 - Added `::ZERO` constant for `IpAddress`
+- Added comprehensive integration with `core::net::{IpAddr, Ipv4Addr, Ipv6Addr}`
+  via `From` impls to better integrate uefi-raw types `IpAddress`,
+  `Ipv4Address`, and `Ipv6Address` with the Rust ecosystem.
+- Added convenient `From` impls:
+  - `[u8; 6]`  --> `MacAddress`
+  - `[u8; 32]` --> `MacAddress`
+  - `[u8; 4]`  --> `Ipv4Address`, `IpAddress`
+  - `[u8; 16]` --> `Ipv6Address`, `IpAddress`
 
 ## Changed
 - **Breaking:** The MSRV is now 1.85.1 and the crate uses the Rust 2024 edition.
