Umm do I understand you correctly that you want to have something like
this:

     src/
     ├─ bindings/
     │  ├─ sdn/
     │  │  ├─ fabrics.rs
     ├─ sdn/
     │  ├─ status.rs

?

IMO we could move all the status stuff out to
crate::bindings::sdn::status. But I don't know about separating all the
types, conversion methods and actual perl methods -- I'd rather keep all
the perl-facing stuff in the same file.

Oops, this slipped through, should have been somewhere else.

Yup, I agree, changed all the TryInto impls to functions `get_routes`,
`get_neighbors` and `get_status`.

Also fixed all the other stuff below.

Thanks for the review!
