link.py: interface and link abstractions for mininet
It seems useful to bundle functionality for interfaces into a single
Also it seems useful to enable the possibility of multiple flavors of
links, including:
- simple veth pairs
- tunneled links
- patchable links (which can be disconnected and reconnected via a patchbay)
- link simulators (e.g. wireless)
Basic division of labor:
  Nodes: know how to execute commands
  Intfs: know how to configure themselves
  Links: know how to connect nodes together
Intf: basic interface object that can configure itself
TCIntf: interface with bandwidth limiting and delay via tc
Link: basic link class for creating veth pairs
