We need common operations from the python scripts.
For example, to print the boot-time.
Move such utils to a separate nmex.py file ("ex" for
example). This file should contain helper functions that
are pure python (or, if the have requirements, load them
only on demand, so that examples that need those have
additional dependencies). It should also be simple to extract
individual helpers from nmex, so that the user can take an
example, merge parts of nmex.py in, and modify it to his needs.
