if I use batadv_iv_ogm_metric_is_equiv_or_better than I have problems wit hthe
assignment of the ops member later...line toooo long :) This is why I chose that
name.

I don't think it is correct. Metric is separated from the algorithm and and this
define belongs to the metric. In the future we may have B.A.T.M.A.N. X which
wants to use the TQ again..at that point it should (re-)use all the constants we
already have.
