tests: improve lcov stats for memory_api.c

Cover vl_mem_api_dead_client_scan(...), which is not so simple.  Spin
up vpp_api_test using pexpect.spawn, make it bootstrap a private
memory segment, kill vpp_api_test, and wait for the dead client
scanner to run a few times so that it declares the client dead.

The test only runs if GCOV_TESTS=yes is set in the environment.

Type: test
