OVO MACAddress field isn't serializable

[Kevin Benton]

The OVO MACAddress field can't be serialized to JSON because it is represented as a EUI object from netaddr without a to_primitive method.

This is what happens if you try to json encode an EUI object.

>>> json.dumps({'mac-address': netaddr.EUI('AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF')})
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

    chunks = self.iterencode(o, _one_shot=True)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/json/encoder.py", line 270, in iterencode
    return _iterencode(o, 0)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/json/encoder.py", line 184, in default
    raise TypeError(repr(o) + " is not JSON serializable")
TypeError: EUI('AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF') is not JSON serializable

    Add 'to_primitive' for MACAddress and IPNetwork

    Both of these OVO common types did not have a to_primitive
    method, so their native netaddr objects were being passed
    to the json serializer.

    For the MACAdddress object, this resulted in an traceback
    because EUI types are not json encodable. For the IPNetwork,
    this resulted in a list of every IP address in the network.

    This fixes both by adding a 'to_primitive' method that calls
    str on the netaddr objects, which results in sane representations
    (string mac address and string CIDR).

    This adds a base test the common types test case to ensure
    all primitive representations are json serializable.
