mac: Add ParseError enum

The `mac::ParseError` enumeration is intended to represent all of the
possible ways `MacAddress::from_string` could fail. For now, the only
known problem is an invalid hexadecimal integer found in one of the
octets, which causes a `ParseIntError`. The `ParseError` enum implements
the `Debug`, `Display`, and `Error` traits.
