legacy flowvisor_state metric is missing from gmoc.py

Assuming the measurement client should support both the ​GEC14 metric list and the set of legacy metrics which tango-monitor-foam currently submits, support should be added for the flowvisor_state metric, defined as:

class FlowvisorState(GMOCMeasurement):
    """Measurement class for legacy FlowVisor state info"""

    def __init__(self, reporter = None):
        super(FlowvisorState, self).__init__(reporter, "flowvisor_state", [ "ro_rules", "rw_rules", "dpids", "slices" ], [ "N", "N", "N", "N" ])

Oh, right: flowvisor_state is supported on an Aggregate (of type FOAM).

Like i said, this is legacy stuff, but i like the idea of fully migrating to gmoc.py without losing any current functionality from tango-monitor-foam.

I discussed this with Sarah yesterday, and concluded that legacy metrics are not important. I can continue to use measurement_sender.pl to submit legacy metrics until gmoc.py download is implemented, and would rather focus on the GEC14 metrics, newer metrics that people propose, and gmoc.py download, than on metrics which overlap the relational data and are only being submitted because we can't get at the relational data.
