UpfProgrammable (ONOS Java API (2.7.0))

All Superinterfaces:

Behaviour, HandlerBehaviour, UpfDevice
```
@Beta
public interface UpfProgrammable
extends HandlerBehaviour, UpfDevice
```
Provides means to update the device forwarding state to implement a 3GPP User Plane Function. An implementation of this API should not write state directly to the device, but instead, always rely on core ONOS subsystems (e.g., FlowRuleService, GroupService, etc).

Method Summary
