[Click] click element handlers

[Roberto Riggio]

Hi,

instead of using handlers you could pass the element whose member
you want to access to the element where you want to use that information.

You can find some examples in the in the roofnet's elements 
(click-packages tree),
i.e. the SR2ETTStat element accept as configuration parameter the 
AvailableRates
element. Give a look at sr2ettstat.cc for more info about how to write 
the configure
method in this case.

Alternatively, I think that you can also traverse the entire click graph 
looking for your
element. An example can be found in the FromDevice element.
