added new nxs net test hub code for testing nxs netservice (fails at the moment)

* Retroshare General Network Exchange Service: \n
* Interface:
* - This provides a module to service peer's requests for GXS messages \n
* and also request GXS messages from other peers. \n
* - The general mode of operation is to sychronise all messages/grps between
* peers
*
* The interface is sparse as this service is mostly making the requests to other GXS components
*
* Groups:
* - As this is where exchanges occur between peers, this is also where group's relationships
* should get resolved as far as
* - Per implemented GXS there are a set of rules which will determine whether data is transferred
* between any set of groups
*
* 1 allow transfers to any group
* 2 transfers only between group
* - the also group matrix settings which is by default everyone can transfer to each other
