The user will add the pyloxi directory to PYTHONPATH. Then they can
"import loxi" or "import loxi.of10". The idiomatic import is
"import loxi.of10 as ofp". The protocol modules (e.g. of10) import
all of their submodules, so the user can access "ofp.message" without
further imports. The protocol modules also import the constants from
the const module directly into their namespace so the user can access
"ofp.OFPP_NONE".
