Implemented Batch API to group set of VES of messages for sending over http.

  Tested against VES Collector.

   Enhanced test collector for Batch processing.

Java Sample code:

EvelBatch be = new EvelBatch();
EvelFault flt2 = new EvelFault("Fault_vVNF", "vmname_ip",
"NIC error", "Hardware failed",
EvelHeader.PRIORITIES.EVEL_PRIORITY_HIGH,
EVEL_SEVERITIES.EVEL_SEVERITY_MAJOR,
EVEL_SOURCE_TYPES.EVEL_SOURCE_CARD,
EVEL_VF_STATUSES.EVEL_VF_STATUS_ACTIVE);
flt2.evel_fault_addl_info_add("nichw", "fail");
flt2.evel_fault_addl_info_add("nicsw", "fail");
be.addEvent(flt2);

EvelFault flt3 = new EvelFault("Fault_vVNF", "vmname_ip2",
"NIC error", "Hardware failed",
EvelHeader.PRIORITIES.EVEL_PRIORITY_NORMAL,
EVEL_SEVERITIES.EVEL_SEVERITY_MAJOR,
EVEL_SOURCE_TYPES.EVEL_SOURCE_CARD,
EVEL_VF_STATUSES.EVEL_VF_STATUS_ACTIVE);
flt3.evel_fault_type_set("Interface fault");
flt3.evel_fault_category_set("Failed category");
flt3.evel_fault_interface_set("An Interface Card");
flt3.evel_fault_addl_info_add("nichw", "fail");
flt3.evel_fault_addl_info_add("nicsw", "fail");
be.addEvent(flt3);

EvelStateChange stc = new EvelStateChange("StateChange_vVNF", "vmname_ip",
EvelStateChange.EVEL_ENTITY_STATE.EVEL_ENTITY_STATE_IN_SERVICE,
EvelStateChange.EVEL_ENTITY_STATE.EVEL_ENTITY_STATE_OUT_OF_SERVICE,"bgp");
stc.evel_statechange_addl_info_add("bgpa", "fail");
stc.evel_statechange_addl_info_add("bgpb", "fail");
//AgentMain.evel_post_event(stc);

be.addEvent(stc);
AgentMain.evel_post_event(be);
