Change subject: commands, ts_102_221: replace pytlv with uttlv
......................................................................


Patch Set 6: Code-Review-1

I originally thought that migrating from pytlv to uttlv might solve problems, but apparently it tends to create even more problems.

One problem we stumble upon repeatedly is that that when the parser hits undefined TLV elements it throws an exception. This behavior is wrong since TLV was designed explicitly with the idea in mind that one could add IEs afterwards and still be compatible with older parsers. Uttlv does not have this issue, but it seems to have other problems. It is probably not helpful to migrate to uttlv now. However it is also not pressing at the moment.

I think we should abandon this and look for something else in the long run.
