Updated by Alex Afanasyev almost 9 years ago

Update **NFD Developer Guide** to describe: 

 * Face refactoring toward LinkService+Transport structure 
 * permanent faces 
 * GenericLinkService 

 * * *  

 Additional more specific things: 

   * Remove references to old face system 
   * Finalize description of transports (udp unicast, udp multicast, ethernet, internal, dummy) 
   * order of transports should be:    internal, unix, ethernet, udp unicast, udp multicast, tcp, websocket, dummy 
   * Generic link service description. (AA: Maybe we should not mention “planned” features and services) 
  * “developing a new link service” section (2.3.3).    Should be called “Extending NFD Face System” 
 - face system (2.3): ProtocolFactory, Channel, workflow(?) 
 - remove old face system (section 3), moving elements to section 2: 
  * 3.1 (FaceUri) 
  * 3.2 (Protocol Factory) 
  * 3.3 (Channel) 
  * Updated figures, where applicable 
 - tables (4.2, network regions table).    We may need to add more details and references
