Support Modbus device failover

Enhance the interface to support redundant Modbus devices with different network cards/IP addresses. The controllers would publish a status update on the active device, and the interface should request data from it accordingly.

Modify the Modbus Interface to accept 32-bit Unsigned Ints from the PLC

provide a data type to accept a 4 byte unsigned integer from the PLC.  At this point, it would be stored in a 64-bit float in PI DA.

PI to PI interface should perform first scan so that future data can recovered

/fd parameter is only used while performing real-time scan. If scan rate is set to a higher value such as a day, the user would need to wait for the first scan (after a day) to get future data. This should be done at interface startup. For use cas...
