NEST is imported even though a Nengo simulation is specified
Description
I wanted to import a NEST model inside a transfer function, and was getting an error when I initialize the model because Nest was already imported and the simulation had started, so parameters could not be changes anymore.
As a workaround, I added this line in the BIBI file (<mode>SynchronousNengoSimulation</mode>) to make the simulation use Nengo instead of NEST, thinking that NEST would not be imported.
It turns out that NEST was still being imported, and to avoid that I had to comment out line 44 in $HBP/CLE/hbp_nrp_cle/hbp_nrp_cle/brainsim/_init_.py
