[Simh] trouble selecting VAX ethernet on CentOS

[Mark Pizzolato - Info Comm]

Libpcap is flexible enough to provide a way of "listening" to other types of traffic beyond our basic network needs.  Linux has several facilities which leverage this idea (for example traffic to/from usb devices for example).  The total of these things on your system exceeded 10 and that caused the SegFault.

I have fixed the coding error AND doubled the table size to increase the likelihood that all of the interesting LAN style pcap capable devices are visible to simh networking.
