IPXNetwork should provide an iterator for its subnets

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. >>> import ipaddr
2. >>> net = ipaddr.IPv6Network('1234:1234:1234::/48')
3. >>> net.subnet(16)

Please provide any additional information below.

For very high number of subnets this could be unacceptable for its high
memory usage or if you need to assign subnets in a counter-like manner.

i posted[1] a patch to Rietveld (but really i don't know how does it works)
with relative tests.

hey marco,

thanks for sending the patch! before I dig into this, I wanted to check to see 
if
you'd 'signed' the contributor license agreement.  Same goes for the other patch
you've sent in.

one of these days, I'll get around to finding out where the list of
already-signed-cla lives so I don't have to ask.

cheers,
/peter

Now i did, i only hope that all my havings do not became google's havings or 
google's
lawyers will not knock at my door.

Please, consider to rename the function in something more coherent like 
'itersubnets'.
