Add comprehensive DHCP statistics tracking in ovn-controller using OVS
coverage counters for observability into DHCP query processing.

Tracked metrics include:
- Total queries processed (DHCPv4 and DHCPv6)
- DHCPv4 message types (DISCOVER, REQUEST, DECLINE, RELEASE, INFORM)
- DHCPv6 message types (SOLICIT, REQUEST, CONFIRM, DECLINE, RELEASE,
  INFO-REQUEST)
- Responses sent (OFFER, ACK, NAK for v4; ADVERTISE, REPLY for v6)
- Error conditions (truncated, invalid opcode, missing message type, etc.)

Statistics can be queried using:
  ovn-appctl -t ovn-controller coverage/read-counter <counter_name>
  ovn-appctl -t ovn-controller coverage/show

Test coverage validates all DHCPv4 message types (DISCOVER, REQUEST,
DECLINE, RELEASE, INFORM) and response types (OFFER, ACK, NAK), as well
as DHCPv6 message types (SOLICIT, RELEASE, INFO_REQUEST) and responses
(ADVERTISE, REPLY). Counter checks are placed before controller restarts
to ensure reliable automated testing, following the pattern used for DNS
coverage counter validation.

    - Added support for TLS Server Name Indication (SNI) with the new
      --ssl-server-name option in OVN utilities and daemons. This allows
      specifying the server name for SNI, which is useful when connecting
