Summary:                    target_t.ports array is huge
Description: 
The ports array in every target_t struct is statically allocated to 65536
ints which takes up a lot of memory. We could cut this in half by changing
it to chars

On second thought it'd be better to abstract out the ports to methods so
that we don't have to make every plugin deal with the ports. This is
especially important if we ever want to move to a dynamic structure in the
future.

That's a much bigger project than s/int/char/, so i'm going to hold off on
it until after the target expansion is done
