[ndnSIM] [Nfd-dev] getting the Neighbors nodes Ids of the current node

[Klaus Schneider]

Please cc the ndnSIM mailing list for your follow-up questions.

I don't think there should be a problem of using my helper functions 
together with the getFace() method.

If there is, you might want to attach the error message (there's a lot 
of asserts in the code) or the result.

Best regards,
Klaus
