implements LocalNodeI

Implementation of the LocalNodeI interface that some Serializable classes (such as Certificate) extend, if they want to be kept informed of what node they're on. If a class cannot use this provided implementation (for reasons such as multiple inheritance), it should implement the method provided in the LocalNode interface in the same manner as these.
