* \brief Adding CCNx functionality to existing Nodes.
*
* This helper enables pcap and ascii tracing of events in the ccnx stack
* associated with a node. This is substantially similar to the tracing that
* happens in device helpers, but the important difference is that, well, there
* is no device. This means that the creation of output file names will change,
* and also the user-visible methods will not reference devices and therefore
* the number of trace enable methods is reduced.
*
* Normally we eschew multiple inheritance, however, the classes
* PcapUserHelperForCcnx and AsciiTraceUserHelperForCcnx are treated as
* "mixins". A mixin is a self-contained class that encapsulates a general
* attribute or a set of functionality that may be of interest to many other
* classes.
