patch

Making PointToPointChannel::Delay attribute a random variable is a very useful
thing to have.  For instance, to emulate an "internet link", where the delay
through the internet cloud is non-deterministic.

I am abandoning this change.  PointToPoint is limited to L3 traffic, so I can't
use it.  I tried similar approach in CsmaNetDevice, but it seems that
increasing delay severely affects throughput, so I gave up for now.
