Using the pninexus.nexus package

import pninexus as nexus

As pninexus.h5cpp is a wrapper for the h5cpp C++ library, pninexus.nexus is a thin wrapper around the pni::nexus namespace of libpninexus. With the new API a lot has changed. While with the old interface all functionality was provided by libpninexus this has now moved to h5cpp. Naturally also the Python wrapper has changed.
