[Ndn-interest] NDN packet size

[Klaus Schneider]

In an earlier version of ndn-cxx I found that I needed to make the 
change at multiple places:

> ./ndn-cxx/src/encoding/encoding-buffer.hpp:  EncodingImpl(size_t totalReserve = 8800, size_t reserveFromBack = 400)
> ./ndn-cxx/src/encoding/encoder.hpp:  Encoder(size_t totalReserve = 8800, size_t reserveFromBack = 400);
> ./ndn-cxx/src/encoding/block.cpp:const size_t MAX_SIZE_OF_BLOCK_FROM_STREAM = 8800;
> ./ndn-cxx/src/encoding/encoder.cpp:Encoder::Encoder(size_t totalReserve/* = 8800*/, size_t reserveFromBack/* = 400*/)
> ./ndn-cxx/src/encoding/tlv.hpp:const size_t MAX_NDN_PACKET_SIZE = 8800;

Also some client libraries like jndn have the 8800 Bytes hard coded:

> ./src/net/named_data/jndn/util/Common.java:  public static final int MAX_NDN_PACKET_SIZE


Best regards,
Klaus
