[ndnSIM] Get All Faces while implementing custom forwarding strategy

[Boubakr Nour]

Due to the fact that FIB lists only the list of green faces (ranked interfaces), you may end up by trying to rank the candidate interfaces using your own metrics. In such a scenario, list of available interfaces is also useful.

Well, the issue I was facing was that the FIB was not listing all the paths that were reachable from the node. But as you hinted towards the routing protocol, the issue got resolved by changing the function from GlobalRoutingHelper:: CalculateRoutes() to  GlobalRoutingHelper:: CalculateAllPossibleRoutes().
Thanks,
