Unlike test suites, you have to include the path when you run an example like this:

    ./test.py -e tutorial/first
    ./test.py -e ../src/mobility/examples/mobility-example

Right now, the path to the example is relative starting at

    build/debug/examples

I propose making the path be relative starting at

    build/debug

so that these would work:

    ./test.py -e examples/tutorial/first
    ./test.py -e src/mobility/examples/mobility-example

I agree it is more intuitive, but we may want to provide a new option (-p?) that defaults to build/debug but would allow to override where to search, such as opt/ or dbg/ build directories in the proposed bake system.

I made the path be relative starting at

    build/debug

so that these would work:

    ./test.py -e examples/tutorial/first
    ./test.py -e src/mobility/examples/mobility-example

I also added a new option (--buildpath) to test.py that allows you to specify the directory where ns-3 was built:

  ./test.py --buildpath=/home/watrous/repository/ns-3-allinone/ns-3-dev/build/debug --example=examples/wireless/wifi-simple-adhoc
