ovsdb-server allows the OVSDB clients to specify the uuid for
the row inserts [1]. Both the C IDL client library and Python
IDL are missing this feature. This patch adds this support.
In C IDL, for each schema table, a new function is generated -
<schema_table>insert_persistent_uuid(txn, uuid) which can
be used the clients to persist the uuid.
ovs-vsctl and other derivatives of ctl now supports the same
in the generic 'create' command with the option "--id=<UUID>".
In Python IDL, the uuid to persist can be specified in
the Transaction.insert() function.

I would have found these useful for the OVN tests. The {in} operator
is the same as {<=}, but it's still useful to have the alternate syntax
because most of the time we think of set inclusion separately from
set subsets. The {not-in} operator is different from any existing
operator though.

Adding / removing a range of integers to a column accepting a set of
integers requires enumarating all of the integers. This patch simplifies
it by introducing 'range' concept to the database commands. Two integers
separated by a hyphen represent an inclusive range.
The patch adds positive and negative tests for the new syntax.
The patch was tested by 'make check'. Covarage was tested by
'make check-lcov'.
