This commit changes the "ovs-appctl coverage/show" command to show the
the averaged per-second rates for the last few seconds, the last minute
and the last hour, and the total counts of all of the coverage counters.

This makes each of the coverage counters per-thread. It abandons the
idea of trying to keep track of the number of hits in the "current" poll
loop, since there are many poll loops running, each in its own thread, as
well as the idea of numbering epochs for the same reason. Instead, we
just keep track of overall totals for the process for each coverage
counter, accumulating per-thread counts into the global total each time
a thread's main loop passes through poll_block().

I've had a few complaints that ovs-vswitchd logs its coverage counters
at WARN level, but this is mainly wrong: ovs-vswitchd only logs coverage
counters at WARN level when the "coverage/log" command is used through
ovs-appctl. This was even documented.
The reason to log at such a high level was to make it fairly certain that
these messages specifically requested by the admin would not be filtered
out before making it to the log. But it's even better if the admin just
gets the coverage counters as a reply to the ovs-appctl command. So that
is what this commit does.
This commit also improves the documentation of the ovs-appctl command.

sparse warns if a non-static variable with external linkage has an
initializer at first declaration, because it suspects that it should be
static instead. Generally it's correct, but not in these cases, so add
a redundant declaration to suppress the warning.
The suppress warnings look like:
../ofproto/connmgr.c:40:1: warning: symbol 'VLM_connmgr' was not declared. Should it be static?
../ofproto/collectors.c:31:1: warning: symbol 'vlog_module_ptr_collectors' was not declared. Should it be static?
../ofproto/connmgr.c:43:1: warning: symbol 'counter_ofconn_stuck' was not declared. Should it be static?

Until now, the collection of coverage counters supported by a given OVS
program was not specific to that program. That means that, for example,
even though ovs-dpctl does not have anything to do with mac_learning, it
still has a coverage counter for it. This is confusing, at best.
This commit fixes the problem on some systems, in particular on ones that
use GCC and the GNU linker. It uses the feature of the GNU linker
described in its manual as:
If an orphaned section's name is representable as a C identifier then
the linker will automatically see PROVIDE two symbols: __start_SECNAME
and __end_SECNAME, where SECNAME is the name of the section. These
indicate the start address and end address of the orphaned section
respectively.
Systems that don't support these features retain the earlier behavior.
This commit also fixes the annoyance that files that include coverage
counters must be listed on COVERAGE_FILES in lib/automake.mk.
This commit also fixes the annoyance that modifying any source file that
includes a coverage counter caused all programs that link against
libopenvswitch.a to relink, even programs that the source file was not
linked into. For example, modifying ofproto/ofproto.c (which includes
coverage counters) caused tests/test-aes128 to relink, even though
test-aes128 does not link again ofproto.o.

Previously, there was no way to induce coverage information to be
displayed; it would only print when the system noticed unusual delays
between polling intervals. Now, production of coverage logs can be
forced with "coverage/log" command in ovs-appctl. Coverage counters may
be reset with "coverage/clear".
