Add script to show packets count from debug logs

Mineclonia has inherited mods from MineClone 2 that send a lot of network
packets. This behaviour wastes bandwith and is most likely a major reason
for the unusually high amount of lag that MineClone2 and Mineclonia have.

Many network packets that are sent by Mineclonia are entirely useless.
Analyzing minetest log files to figure out what kind of packets are
sent and how often is a first step in getting rid of useless traffic.

# This script takes a minetest log with at least INFO log level and
# outputs the MINETEST network protocol packet count per second.
# To collect such a log file of minetest running for 10 minutes, run:
# timeout 600 minetest --info >log.txt 2>&1 >/dev/null
# To get packet counts from that file, run:
# ./analyze-packet-spam <log.txt
