Add a way to track report/analysis usage for OTBI

Description
Our clients have been requesting a way to track which reports and analysis are more commonly used than others. Something along the lines of how many times a report or analysis has been accessed, who accessed and some sort of ties with a timestamp.
Ultimately, we are aiming to optimize our OTBI working environment by identifying which reports are not being utilized and determine usage of more complex requested analysis.
Use Case and Business Need
Having a way to track usage of analysis & reports allows our clients to take more ownership of the OTBI environment and identify changes & improvements on reports that are currently not being used.
This improvement allows us to maintain and track users that are utilizing reports, and others that should be using the analysis & reports, but aren't, which would ultimately improve our accountability and that of our clients.
In addition, this will help identify security breaches as well as permit IT to further improve the security in our reporting structure.
More details
There is currently no meta-data in reports that we are aware of, and an SR we recently opened regarding the matter confirmed this was not something yet implemented.
