A lot of tests need to initialize the OVS_RUNDIR, OVS_LOGDIR, etc.
variables to point to the directory in which the tests run. Until now,
each of them has had to do this individually, which is redundant. This
commit starts to do this automatically.

Until now, "unix:" and "punix:" paths that are not absolute have
been considered relative to the current working directory. It
is more useful to consider them relative to the rundir, so this
commit makes that change to the C and Python implementations of
the stream code.
This commit also relaxes the whitelist check in the bridge code
so that any name that does not contain a "/" is considered OK.

It's better to check output than to ignore it, because ignoring
output can fail to detect real bugs later if the output changes.

These initial bindings pass a few hundred of the corresponding tests
for C implementations of various bits of the Open vSwitch library API.
The poorest part of them is actually the Python IDL interface in
ovs.db.idl, which has not received enough attention yet. It appears
to work, but it doesn't yet support writes (transactions) and it is
difficult to use. I hope to improve it as it becomes clear what
semantics Python applications actually want from an IDL.
