osc_read reads an OSC packet from the Tcl channel <channel> and returns it formatted as a list.
The channel must have been created either with the socket command or the udp_open command. The channel must have been configured for binary translation.
If the packet is an OSC message, the time-tag is always { 0 1 }. The definition of OSC time-tags is provided in the "Temporal Semantics and OSC Time Tags" section of the OSC specification.
