about my address conversion functions

----
Type of Addresses that a node can have in NS2 (hAddr, ID, iAddr, Handle)
In NS2, a node can be uniquely identified by several forms
the "handle" is the otcl name; it refers to an object of the form "_oXXX",
and because of this, it is the only form can be used to directly call
internal instprocs and variables.
the "haddr" is the Hierarchical address, on the form "X.Y.Z"
the "iaddr" is the INTEGER hierarchical address, where the haddr string is
simply ENCODED in a 32 bit integer.
the "id" is the sequential Node ID of the simulator.
The proposed variable names and contents are outlined in the following
table.
For unknown nodes or in error conditions, the value "-1" is generally used.

In my ns2_shared_procs.tcl "utils" tcl file, I introduce procs for all
possible conversions of each form, using the procs "handle2iaddr",
"handle2haddr", "handle2id", etc.
