Description

This patch contains the following bug fixes:

* License Optimizer does not check if there is a license checkout and freezes an application though
there is none. To fix this issue,  "used-licenses" rule has been added , this will check if the user
of a feature
on a host has the actual number of license usage that is specified in the rule.

* Freezemonitor failed to optimize applications because it cannot handle the new lmstat output. This
patch adds support for the new output format of flex (vendor name included on usage line).

* Freezemon rule license-use gets the utilization wrong. The "license-use" rule previously had a bug
that caused the percentage of use to be summed for all features, and the sum was used in the
calculations. It has been updated so that the use will now be
calculated for each feature individually.

*lmremove issue
Configuration is added for cold.conf: rm-retry-interval=<period> and rm-max-retry=<number>. It is to
better control how frequently and how many times lmremove is to be run when disabling, if the first
attempt fails.
