[ndnSIM] How to count the forwarding hops of an Interest

[Michał Król]

As mentioned before, the hopcount is already there. Here's how to get it:

shared_ptr<ndn::lp::HopCountTag> hopCountTag = 
interest.getTag<ndn::lp::HopCountTag>();
int hopCount = 0;
if(hopCountTag != NULL){
         hopCount = *hopCountTag;

}
