> With the work done for AVRO-1167 & AVRO-766 in identifying memory leaks decided to make it a standard part of the testing framework. This issue  requires https://github.com/apache/avro/pull/218 otherwise test_avro_schema and test_avro_values fail due to to avro_schema_copy calls.
> Adding valgrind tool to the docker container
> Adding valgrind to CMakeLists.txt to optionally do valgrind testing if the tool is found
> Cleaning up existing tests that were failing due to not properly cleaning up memory
> Lastly, as part of ./build.sh test for lang/c do not remove the build/c directory. The memcheck output is kept so that memory leak issues can be reviewed and addressed.
