[ndnSIM] ndn-cxx or ndnSIM/ndn-cxx?

[Anil Jangam]

Thanks Alex for your comments.

So in this regard, is it proposed to remove the ndnSIM's dependency on
ndn-cxx since configure fails if no ndn-cxx libraries are found. So your
last statement isn't completely true OR it would justify the above proposed
removal.
