Epic Name: Reorganize netconf.git

 Description   

Current layout of source code within netconf.git leaves a lot to be desired. We specifically want to separate concerts into:

 

/transport
/protocol
/plugins
/apps

The idea being that:

 

  • netconf-{api,impl,client} as well as restconf-api lives in /protocol – e.g. both RESTCONF and NETCONF protocol-layer stuff lives here
  • sal-rest-docgen and RESTCONF northbound application lives in /apps – these are end-to-end integrations
  • sal-netconf-connector et al. live in /plugins, e.g. they provide MDSAL/protocol integration
  • the "secure transport" bits of RFC6241 live in /transport, dealing with how the session is established

This has further implications – netconf-impl contains the core protocol, but also the netconf server, whereas netconf-client deals with client bits. This means the server bits need to live in netconf-server. There may well be other implications which are in scope.
