Ticket: CM-7361 Reviewed By: CCR- Testing Done: Tested with clag Certain loggers, most notably the syslog, don't allow non-printable characters in their output, and so they convert them to a string of printable characters. For example, the newline character is converted to #012. This results in output that looks like this: 2016-08-29T18:50:46.263178+00:00 act-5712-08 clagd[21539]: RXed RTM_NEWNEIGH, length 68, seq 0, pid 0, flags 0x0#012#012 #033[91mNetlink Header#033[0m#012 1: #033[91m0x44000000#033[0m D...

So this patch modifes the nlpacket debug output so that the user can specify whether or not color output should be used by including an extra, optional parameter when instantiating a NetlinkPacket object. The default is for color output, just like before this patch. But if color output is not desired, then no VT100 control sequences will be output. Nor will there be any newline characters embedded in the output. The NetlinkManagerWithListener and NetlinkManager classes were also modified to add the same optional use_color attribute, which defaults to True. Thus when class members which instantiate NetlinkPacket objects are created the appropriate value for the use_color attribute will be applied. I also noticed that the default pid_offset of the NetlinkListener class was 2, when it should have been 1. So I fixed that too.
DO NOT EDIT NLMANAGER SOURCES. This is a mirror copy of python-nlmanager sources. It was extracted and directly included here to support some usecases where user don't have python-nlmanager already installed on their system. So we decided to have local copy and build with it. It is the mainter responsability to keep an updated version of nlmanager.
