Setter method for hardware_type, mapped from YANG variable /brocade_interface_ext_rpc/get_interface_detail/output/interface/hardware_type (enumeration)
    If this variable is read-only (config: false) in the
    source YANG file, then _set_hardware_type is considered as a private
    method. Backends looking to populate this variable should
    do so via calling thisObj._set_hardware_type() directly.
