tests: Add support for automatically running Ryu tests against OVS.

The Ryu controller comes with an extensive library of OpenFlow tests, but
it doesn't seem so easy to me to run all of them against a development
version of Open vSwitch.  This commit introduces a Makefile target so that
one can run all the Ryu tests with a simple "make check-ryu".

This commit adds documentation for the new target to INSTALL.  It also
moves the documentation for the "check-oftest" target and the
--enable-coverage configure option into INSTALL.

Running the Testsuite
=====================
Testsuites
==========
Open vSwitch includes a testsuite. Before you submit patches
This section describe Open vSwitch's built-in support for various test
suites. You must configure and build Open vSwitch (steps 1 through 3
in "Building and Installing Open vSwitch for Linux, FreeBSD or NetBSD"
above) before you run the tests described here. You do not need to
install Open vSwitch or to build or load the kernel module to run
these test suites. You do not need supervisor privilege to run these
test suites.
Self-Tests
----------
Open vSwitch includes a suite of self-tests. Before you submit patches
upstream, we advise that you run the tests and ensure that they pass.
If you add new features to Open vSwitch, then adding tests for those
features will ensure your features don't break as developers modify
other areas of Open vSwitch.
You must configure and build Open vSwitch (steps 1 through 3 in
"Building and Installing Open vSwitch for Linux, FreeBSD or NetBSD" above)
before you run the testsuite. You do not need to install Open vSwitch
or to build or load the kernel module to run the testsuite. You do
not need supervisor privilege to run the testsuite.
Refer to "Testsuites" above for prerequisites.
To run all the unit tests in Open vSwitch, one at a time:
make check

you find that a test fails intermittently, please report it, since the
developers may not have noticed.
OFTest
------
OFTest is an OpenFlow protocol testing suite. Open vSwitch includes a
Makefile target to run OFTest with Open vSwitch in "dummy mode". In
this mode of testing, no packets travel across physical or virtual
networks. Instead, Unix domain sockets stand in as simulated
networks. This simulation is imperfect, but it is much easier to set
up, does not require extra physical or virtual hardware, and does not
require supervisor privileges.
To run OFTest with Open vSwitch, first read and follow the
instructions under "Testsuites" above. Second, obtain a copy of
OFTest and install its prerequisites. You need a copy of OFTest that
includes commit 406614846c5 (make ovs-dummy platform work again).
This commit was merged into the OFTest repository on Feb 1, 2013, so
any copy of OFTest more recent than that should work. Testing OVS in
dummy mode does not require root privilege, so you may ignore that
requirement.
Optionally, add the top-level OFTest directory (containing the "oft"
program) to your $PATH. This slightly simplifies running OFTest later.
To run OFTest in dummy mode, run the following command from your Open
vSwitch build directory:
make check-oftest OFT=<oft-binary>
where <oft-binary> is the absolute path to the "oft" program in
OFTest.
If you added "oft" to your $PATH, you may omit the OFT variable
assignment:
make check-oftest
By default, "check-oftest" passes "oft" just enough options to enable
dummy mode. You can use OFTFLAGS to pass additional options. For
example, to run just the basic.Echo test instead of all tests (the
default) and enable verbose logging:
make check-oftest OFT=<oft-binary> OFTFLAGS='--verbose -T basic.Echo'
If you use OFTest that does not include commit 4d1f3eb2c792 (oft:
change default port to 6653), merged into the OFTest repository in
October 2013, then you need to add an option to use the IETF-assigned
controller port:
make check-oftest OFT=<oft-binary> OFTFLAGS='--port=6653'
Please interpret OFTest results cautiously. Open vSwitch can fail a
given test in OFTest for many reasons, including bugs in Open vSwitch,
bugs in OFTest, bugs in the "dummy mode" integration, and differing
interpretations of the OpenFlow standard and other standards.
Open vSwitch has not been validated against OFTest. Please do report
test failures that you believe to represent bugs in Open vSwitch.
Include the precise versions of Open vSwitch and OFTest in your bug
report, plus any other information needed to reproduce the problem.
Ryu
---
Ryu is an OpenFlow controller written in Python that includes an
extensive OpenFlow testsuite. Open vSwitch includes a Makefile target
to run Ryu in "dummy mode". See "OFTest" above for an explanation of
dummy mode.
To run Ryu tests with Open vSwitch, first read and follow the
instructions under "Testsuites" above. Second, obtain a copy of Ryu,
install its prerequisites, and build it. You do not need to install
Ryu (some of the tests do not get installed, so it does not help).
To run Ryu tests, run the following command from your Open vSwitch
build directory:
make check-ryu RYUDIR=<ryu-source-dir>
where <ryu-source-dir> is the absolute path to the root of the Ryu
source distribution. The default <ryu-source-dir> is $srcdir/../ryu
where $srcdir is your Open vSwitch source directory, so if this
default is correct then you make simply run "make check-ryu".
Open vSwitch has not been validated against Ryu. Please do report
test failures that you believe to represent bugs in Open vSwitch.
Include the precise versions of Open vSwitch and Ryu in your bug
report, plus any other information needed to reproduce the problem.

How to Use OFTest With Open vSwitch
===================================
This document describes how to use the OFTest OpenFlow protocol
testing suite with Open vSwitch in "dummy mode". In this mode of
testing, no packets travel across physical or virtual networks.
Instead, Unix domain sockets stand in as simulated networks. This
simulation is imperfect, but it is much easier to set up, does not
