[Ndn-interest] [jndn] Remote prefix registration (#6)

Hi Bassem

jndn currently supports localhost prefix registration only.
NFD treats loopback address as localhost. 192.168.1.9 is not a loopback
address despite that it's on same machine.
A localhost registration, when sent to a non-local face, will be silently
rejected.

It's intentional for NFD to interpret non-loopback address of same machine
as non-local, otherwise proxy app for new socket type or wire format won't
be able to create a non-local face without requiring a separate machine.

Yours, Junxiao
