The atomic exchange operation is a useful primitive that should be
available as well. Most compilers already expose or offer a way
to use it, but a single symbol needs to be defined.

Commit e981a45a6c (ovs-atomic: Add 64 bit apis.)
added a few 64 bit apis (e.g: atomic_count_inc64). For C++,
this invokes std::atomic_fetch_*_explicit() functions in
lib/ovs-atomic-c++.h.
The function overloading for 64 bit function fails without
specifiying something like: std::atomic_fetch_*_explicit<std::uint64_t>().
But it looks tricky to do this with macros.
This patch tries to fix the compilation failures by calling atomic
functions on the variables itself.

G++ 5 does not implement the _Atomic keyword, which is part of C11 but not
C++11, so the existing <stdatomic.h> based atomic implementation doesn't
work. This commit adds a new implementation based on the C++11 <atomic>
header.
In this area, C++ is pickier about types than C, so a few of the
definitions in ovs-atomic.h have to be updated to use more precise types
for integer constants.
This updates the code that generates cxxtest.cc to #include <config.h>
(so that HAVE_ATOMIC is defined) and to automatically regenerate when the
program is reconfigured (because otherwise the #include <config.h>) won't
get added without a "make clean" step).
"ovs-atomic.h" is not a public header, but apparently some code was
using it anyway.
Fixes: 9c463631e8 ("ovs-atomic: Report error for contradictory configuration.")
