TODO: SIGNALLING FOR ACK/NACK:
- mesh-signalling burst is datac13
- mesh-signalling frame contains [message id, status, hops, score, payload]
- frame type is 1 byte
- message id is 32bit crc --> 4bytes
- status can be ACK, NACK, PING, PINGACK --> 1byte
- payload = 14bytes - 8 bytes  = 6bytes
- create a list for signalling frames, contains [message id, message-status, attempts, state, timestamp]
- on "IRS", send ACK/NACK 10 times on receiving beacon?
- on "ROUTER", receive ACK/NACK, and store it in table, also send it 10 times
- if sent 10 times, set ACK/NACK state to "done"
- if done already in list, don't reset retry counter
- delete ACK/NACK if "done" and timestamp older than 1day
