Adapting the new changes made in htx setup/configuration.

[TasmiyaNalatwad]

The build_net multisystem command introduced is for automatic configuration of network interfaces on both host and peer. The command set's the interfaces with some local net id's and pings the interfaces. The command also starts the htx deamon creates/selects and activates net.mdt for the network devices. No need to explicitely start the htx deamon or create/select or activate net.mdt file.

Also removing the code that was supporting the old htx network topology and made compatible to new configuration changes.

Adding debug.log files to jira id

Please look into travis fail and also test once for sles and mac id as input instead of interface

@abdhaleegit @PraveenPenguin I am not seeing any pep8 errors or warning. And also i have done rebase and pushed the code, still i am seeing the travis issue.

the travis says these are unused in code and can be removed

@abdhaleegit Tested on sles and code is working fine. Below are the results

For "mac id as input instead of interface", i don't see the support for the mac address in the current code. This needs to be added but the interfaces has no role in setting the htx configurations as everything is done by build_net multysystem command.
I am using interfaces just to flush the addresses before starting the test and at the cleanup part. Nothing to do with interfaces other than this.
So is it required to add support for mac ids?

lets keep the original code to support mac_id for htx as is.. annyway both interface way and mac way works ..so lets keep it

@abdhaleegit Yes i have already kept the code as it is.
