[PATCH v1] cleanup: rename base classes

Is there any difference between a SUT and a "tested node"?

OK

"NIC" does not mean it is a device under test.
Also we could have other kind of devices under test, like crypto cards.

I think you need to choose between "TrafficGenerator" and "PacketGenerator".
