Julian Seward 8ffe2fdefa Tidy up of messaging:
* For all tools and the core, don't show statistics when -v is in
  effect.  Instead, try to restrict -v to mostly user-useful
  stuff.

* A new flag --stats=no|yes [no] produces statistics output instead.

* Fix longstanding problem in that Memcheck's leak checker ran after
  the core's error manager module shut down, thereby not showing use
  counts of leak suppressions.  This fixes #186790.

* As a consequence, the leak checker text output of Memcheck has
  changed a bit -- leak check is done before the final error
  summary is done (much more logical), and the output has been
  tidied up a bit.

* Helgrind, Drd and Ptrcheck now also print "For counts of
  detected and suppressed errors, rerun with: -v", which makes
  them consistent with Memcheck in this regard.  These are
  filtered out by the regtest filter scripts.

For all tools except Memcheck, the regtests are unchanged.  On
Memcheck regtests still fail due to rearrangements of the leak
checker output.  This will be fixed by a followup commit.
