Client library should leverage "detail" actions

[Salvatore Orlando]

Currently the client library, used by CLI, batch_config, and the GUI does not leverage the 'detail' actions for ports and networks.

There is no function in this library which executes these API operations.
Having them will be very useful.

And, as a side effect, these operations should be exposed through the CLI

Do we have a taker for rbp? Otherwise we should consider postponing it to Essex.

was agreed at least tuesday's meeting that this branch would not be targeted for diablo.

    Adds client side functions for quantum 'detail' actions.

    Fixes bug 834017. This commit:
    1. Adds library functions to exercise the 'detail' actions
       for quantum ports and networks.
    2. Modifies client function 'show_port_details()' to invoke
       'detail' action. And added 'show_port()' function to do the
       regular call without 'detail'.
    3. Adds CLIs to exercise the new client function calls. The CLIs
       options that end with '_detail' invoke equivalent 'detail' action.
       Note that with this change the previous CLI 'show_port' shall now
       show concise info about a port ie. only ID and state, while
       'show_port_detail' can be used to list the detailed information about
       a port viz. ID, state and its attachment.
    4. Modifies OutputTemplate class to add support for templates with 3 or more
       level attributes (eg. "Port interface: %(port.attachment.id)s) and
       templates containing list of multilevel-attributes (eg. "Ports:
       %(network.ports|ID: %(id)s\t\tinterface: %(attachment.id)s)s")
    5. Added respective unit tests and verified them.
