usertools: support globbing for PCI device binding
When binding or unbinding a range of devices, it can be useful to use
wildcards to specify the devices rather than repeating the same prefix
multiple times. We can use the python "glob" module to give us this
functionality - at least for PCI devices - by checking /sys for matching
files.
Examples of use from my system:
./dpdk-devbind.py -b vfio-pci 80:04.*
./dpdk-devbind.py -u 80:04.[2-7]
The first example binds eight devices, 80:04.0..80:04.7, to vfio-pci. The
second then unbinds six of those devices, 80:04.2..80:04.7, from any
driver.

doc: announce ethdev API change for Rx split
The DPDK datapath in the transmit direction is very flexible.
The applications can build multi-segment packets and manages
almost all data aspects - the memory pools where segments
are allocated from, the segment lengths, the memory attributes
like external, registered, etc.
In the receiving direction, the datapath is much less flexible,
the applications can only specify the memory pool to configure
the receiving queue and nothing more. The packet being received
can only be pushed to the chain of the mbufs of the same data
buffer size and allocated from the same pool. In order to extend
the receiving datapath buffer description it is proposed to add
the new fields into rte_eth_rxconf structure:
struct rte_eth_rxconf {
...
uint16_t rx_split_num; /* number of segments to split */
uint16_t *rx_split_len; /* array of segment lengths */
struct rte_mempool **mp; /* array of segment memory pools */
...
};
The non-zero value of rx_split_num field configures the receiving
queue to split ingress packets into multiple segments to the mbufs
allocated from various memory pools according to the specified
lengths. The zero value of rx_split_num field provides the
backward compatibility and queue should be configured in a regular
way (with single/multiple mbufs of the same data buffer length
allocated from the single memory pool).
The new approach would allow splitting the ingress packets into
multiple parts pushed to the memory with different attributes.
For example, the packet headers can be pushed to the embedded data
buffers within mbufs and the application data into the external
buffers attached to mbufs allocated from the different memory
pools. The memory attributes for the split parts may differ
either - for example the application data may be pushed into
the external memory located on the dedicated physical device,
say GPU or NVMe. This would improve the DPDK receiving datapath
flexibility preserving compatibility with existing API.
The proposed extended description of receiving buffers might be
considered by other vendors to be involved into similar features
support, it is the subject for the further discussion.

tasks, document a syntax for commit logs or cover letters to express
their dependencies.

doc: fix build when sphinx reports version to stderr
When sphinx-build reports its version information to stderr rather
than stdout, the wrapper script misses it, and then fails to run.
We can fix this by redirecting stderr to stdout for the version
query call.

devtools: standardize script arguments
This patch modifies the arguments expected by the check-git-log script,
to match the format of arguments for the checkpatches script. Both
scripts now take certain argument options in the same format, making
them easier to use.
e.g. Both now take a commit ID range by "-r <range>"
The checkpatches help print is also updated to include the "-h" option.
The contributor's guide includes the usage of both the checkpatches and
check-git-log scripts, which needed to be updated to reflect the now
standardised format.

devtools: add checkpatch spelling dictionary builder
The script checkpatch.pl (used in checkpatches.sh) can use a dictionary
from the codespell project to check spelling.
There are multiple dictionaries to be used.
The script build-dict.sh concatenate multiple dictionaries and remove
some annoying false positives.
The dictionary built by this script must be saved in a file which
is referenced with the environment variable DPDK_CHECKPATCH_CODESPELL.
The easiest is to export this variable in ~/.config/dpdk/devel.config.
