OpenFlow Test Framework

DataPlane and DataPlanePort classes

Provide the interface to the control the set of ports being used
to stimulate the switch under test.

See the class dataplaneport for more details.  This class wraps
a set of those objects allowing general calls and parsing
configuration.

@todo Add "filters" for matching packets.  Actions supported
for filters should include a callback or a counter
