/**
 * @short Bridge class to intervene between the FEA's interface
 * manager and libfeaclient.
 *
 * The LibFeaClientBridge takes updates received from the FEA's
 * interface manager and forwards them to registered remote
 * libfeaclient users.  For each update received, the bridge gets the
 * all the state associated with the item being updated, and pushes it
 * into a contained instance of an @ref IfMgrXrlReplicationManager.
 * If the data pushed into the IfMgrXrlReplicationManager triggers
 * state changes in it's internal interface config representation, it
 * forwards the changes to remote observers.
 *
 * In addition to arranging to plumb the LibFeaClientBridge into the
 * FEA to receive updates, it is imperative that the underlying IfTree
 * object used represent state be available to the bridge.  The bridge
 * is made aware of this object through @ref set_iftree.  Failure to
 * call method before an update is received will cause a fatal error.
