We had a need to change the prefixlen on existing IPvXNetwork objects, this is 
added in https://codereview.appspot.com/211620043/

Take a look and let me know if there is anything else you need.

thanks,

David

I need to go back through my old mail (if I can find it) but I suspect that 
there's some pythonic reason why creating a new object with the desired 
prefixlen is preferable. Out of curiosity, why is that insufficient? 
memory/computation reasons?
