[ovs-dev] [PATCH V4 1/3] coverage: Reimplement the "ovs-appclt coverage/show" command

This commit changes the "ovs-appclt coverage/show" command to show the
secondly, minutely and hourly rates of function invocation. More
importantly, this makes using coverage counter an easy way to monitor
the execution of specific functions.

---
v3 -> v4:
- refine code and comments.
- add unit test.
v2 -> v3:
- rebase to current master.
v1 -> v2:
- abandon the wakeup timer and coverage_wait() function.
- now the coverage_run() will run only when more than 5 seconds have passed
since last run.
