/**
 * Provides interfaces to YANG management system. YANG management system
 * is a core of YANG in ONOS.
 *
 * In NBI, it acts as a broker in between the protocol and application,
 * here there is a separate protocol implementation, which does the conversion
 * of protocol representation to abstract data tree. The protocol
 * implementation takes care of the protocol specific actions for
 * e.g. RESTCONF handling the entity-tag / timestamp related operations.
 *
 * In SBI, driver or provider uses YANG codec handler as a utility to translate
 * the request information in java(YANG utils generated) to protocol specific
 * format and vice versa.
