 * In a sense, this is the inverse block to packet_headergenerator_bb.
 * The difference is, the parsed header is not output as a stream,
 * but as a PMT dictionary, which is published to message port with
 * the id "header_data".
 *
 * The dictionary consists of the tags created by the header formatter
 * object. You should be able to use the exact same formatter object
 * as used on the Tx side in the packet_headergenerator_bb.
 *
 * If only a header length is given, this block uses the default header
 * format.
