/**
 * The base class of an intent type.

 * This class is sub-classed to provide other intent types like shortest path
 * connectivity and bandwidth constrained shortest path connectivity.

 * The reasoning behind "intent" is that the applications can provide some
 * abstract representation of how traffic should flow be handled by the
 * networking, allowing the network OS to compile, reserve and optimize the
 * data-plane to satisfy those constraints.
 *
 * It is assumed that any kinds of intents are immutable.
 * Developers that will define a new intent type should ensure its immutability.
