ovs-dpctl and ovs-ofctl lack a read-only option to prevent
running of commands that perform read-write operations. Add
it and the necessary scaffolding to each.

I started working on a new command line utility that used this shared
code. I wanted the ability to pass some data from common
initialization code to all of the commands. You can find a similar
pattern in ovs-vsctl.
This patch updates the command handler to take a new struct,
ovs_cmdl_context, instead of argc and argv directly. It includes argc
and argv, but also includes an opaque type (void *), where the user of
this API can attach its custom data it wants passed along to command
handlers.
This patch affected the ovstest sub-programs, as well. The patch
includes a bit of an odd hack to OVSTEST_REGISTER() to avoid making
the main() function of the sub-programs take a ovs_cmdl_context.
The test main() functions still receive argc and argv directly, as
that seems more natural. The test-subprograms themselves are able to
make use of a context internally, though.

The coding style guidelines include the following:
- Pick a unique name prefix (ending with an underscore) for each
module, and apply that prefix to all of that module's externally
visible names. Names of macro parameters, struct and union members,
and parameters in function prototypes are not considered externally
visible for this purpose.
This patch adds the new prefix to the externally visible names. This
makes it a bit more obvious what code is coming from common command
line handling code.

This commit adds a new variable in 'struct command' for
recording the command usage. Also, a new function is
added to print the usage given the array of defined
commands.
Later patch will use the output in bash command-line
completion script.

This commit adds a function that prints (both long and short)
options of a ovs-* command. To use this function, option
'--option' is added to ovs-appctl/dpctl/ofctl and ovsdb-tool
commands. A future patch will use the option output to
conduct bash command-line completion.

The LINUX_DATAPATH C preprocessor symbol was originally meant to be used as
a signal for whether the Linux datapath module could be used, but it was
used as a proxy for a lot of other stuff that is really just Linux
specific. This commit switches all of these users to just test for
__linux__, which is more straightforward and should have the same result.

The ESX userspace looks quite a bit like linux, but has some key
differences which need to be specially handled in the build. To
distinguish between ESX and systems which use the linux datapath
module, this patch adds two new macros "ESX" and "LINUX_DATAPATH".
It uses these macros to disable building code on ESX which only
applies to a true Linux environment. In addition, it adds a new
route-table-stub implementation which is required for the build to
complete successfully on ESX.

When --monitor is used, administrators sometimes become confused about the
presence of two copies of each process. This commit attempts to clarify
the situation by making the monitoring process change its process name, as
seen in /proc/$pid/cmdline and in "ps", to clearly indicate what is going
on.
