[ndnSIM] NACKs

[Yaogong Wang]

Adding my two cents:

If you are looking for the specific code where NACKs are generated, it is
in Nacks::DidReceiveDuplicateInterest() and
Nacks::DidExhaustForwardingOptions() under model/fw/nacks.cc. The former
generates NACK_LOOP and the latter generates NACK_GIVEUP_PIT. It appears to
me that, in the current implementation, congestion also
generates NACK_GIVEUP_PIT rather than NACK_CONGESTION.

Thanks,
Yaogong
