In ovsdb_idl_db_set_condition(), take into account all pending
condition changes for all tables when computing the db->cond_seqno at
which the monitor is expected to be updated.

In the following scenario, with two tables, A and B, the old code
performed the following steps:
1. Initial db->cond_seqno = X.
2. Client changes condition for table A:
   - A->new_cond gets set
   - expected cond seqno returned to the client: X + 1
3. ovsdb-idl sends the monitor_cond_change for table A
   - A->req_cond <- A->new_cond
4. Client changes condition for table B:
   - B->new_cond gets set
   - expected cond seqno returned to the client: X + 1
   - however, because the condition change at step 3 is still not replied
     to, table B's monitor_cond_change request is not sent yet.
5. ovsdb-idl receives the reply for the condition change at step 3:
   - db->cond_seqno <- X + 1
6. ovsdb-idl sends the monitor_cond_change for table B
7. ovsdb-idl receives the reply for the condition change at step 6:
  - db->cond_seqno <- X + 2

The client was incorrectly informed that it will have all relevant
updates for table B at seqno X + 1 while actually that happens later, at
seqno X + 2.

Thanks!  Applied to branches 2.14 and 2.13.
