Build Update for ovn-org/ovn
-------------------------------------

Build: #134
Status: Fixed

Duration: 16 mins and 49 secs
Commit: 49cc555 (master)
Author: Damijan Skvarc
Message: logical-fields: fix memory leak caused by initialize ovnfield_by_name twice

ovnfield_by_name is hash of strings which is used to quickly find
field by name. This hash is initialized from ovn_init_symtab(). In case
the latter function is called multiple times then also ovnfield_by_name is
initialized multiple times but without freeing previously allocated
memory resources what cause memory leaks.  This actually happens in
ovn-controller which calls ovn_init_symtab() function twice, once from
ofctrl.c and the other time from lflow.c files.

Problem was solved by initializing ovnfield_by_name entity only once
and using design pattern from stopwatch.c or meta_flow.c files (ovs).

Problem was reported by valgrind with flood of messages (190) while executing
ovn test suite:

    ==5999== 47 (32 direct, 15 indirect) bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 86 of 102
