 * BinreadOp --
 *
 *      Reads binary values from a Tcl channel. Values are either appended
 *      to the end of the vector or placed at a given index (using the
 *      "-at" option), overwriting existing values.  Data is read until EOF
 *      is found on the channel or a specified number of values are read.
 *      (note that this is not necessarily the same as the number of bytes).
 *
 *      The following flags are supported:
 *              -swap           Swap bytes
 *              -at index       Start writing data at the index.
 *              -format fmt     Specifies the format of the data.
 *
 *      This binary reader was created by Harald Kirsch (kir@iitb.fhg.de).
 *      Anything that's wrong is due to my munging of his code.
 *
 * Results:
 *      Returns a standard Tcl result. The interpreter result will contain
 *      the number of values (not the number of bytes) read.
 *
 * Caveats:
 *      Channel reads must end on an element boundary.
