Choose ONOS nodes so that only one partition looses a majority

- Fix counter check to only look at the counters used by the test
- Add the gen-partition file to the repo and make the test copy it to
  the right place in ONOS
- clear buffer in clidriver after secureCopy
- Change individual ping timeout for ping functions in mininet driver
- increase links timeout in mininet driver due to occasional failures
- Kill iperf if it timesout to allow continued use of mininet
- Clear buffer at the end of many onos driver functions
