  ovsdb-idl: memory leak while destroying database

While checking unit tests with valgrind option (make check-valgrind) I have
noticed several memory leaks of the following format:

.....
==20019== 13,883 (296 direct, 13,587 indirect) bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 346 of 346
==20019==    at 0x4C2FB55: calloc (in /usr/lib/valgrind/vgpreload_memcheck-amd64-linux.so)

==20019== LEAK SUMMARY:
==20019==    definitely lost: 296 bytes in 1 blocks
==20019==    indirectly lost: 13,587 bytes in 10 blocks
==20019==      possibly lost: 0 bytes in 0 blocks
==20019==    still reachable: 43,563 bytes in 440 blocks
==20019==         suppressed: 288 bytes in 1 blocks
....

The problem is that table records maintained by database which is going to
be destroyed with ovsdb_idl_db_destroy() function are not destroyed.
