Summary: packOSC does not accept LONG lists.

Initial Comment:
since OSCx crashes with long lists (>50) i tried out the mrpeach/osc/ externals as replacement.

unfortunately, this object has also some limitations, since the maximum number of arguments in a list is hardcoded to 2000.
(nevertheless this object checks whether this limit is reached and refuses to crash ;-)

i do not see a reason for this limitation (apart from ease of coding), afaik OSC does not impose a maximum number of list arguments.

the attached diff makes packOSC use dynamic memory management.

has been accepted (and even though i did not explicitely mention it, also
[prepend] has been replaced by [list prepend][list trim] which i very much
like)
