rawdev: introduce raw device library
Each device in DPDK has a type associated with it - ethernet, crypto,
event etc. This patch introduces 'rawdevice' which is a generic
type of device, not currently handled out-of-the-box by DPDK.
A device which can be scanned on an installed bus (pci, fslmc, ...)
or instantiated through devargs, can be interfaced using
standardized APIs just like other standardized devices.
This library introduces an API set which can be plugged on the
northbound side to the application layer, and on the southbound side
to the driver layer.
The APIs of rawdev library exposes some generic operations which can
enable configuration and I/O with the raw devices. Using opaque
data (pointer) as API arguments, library allows a high flexibility
for application and driver implementation.
This patch introduces basic device operations like start, stop, reset,
queue and info support.
Subsequent patches would introduce other operations like buffer
enqueue/dequeue and firmware support.

test/debug: fix EAL cleanup when forking
Before this patch, the debug_autotest would call fork(),
call rte_panic() or rte_exit() in the child process, and
examine the return code to verify that rte_panic() and
rte_exit() were correctly reporting failures.
With the inclusion of the rte_eal_cleanup() patch, rte_exit()
was modified to cleanly tear-down EAL allocations. Currently
only one library (service cores) is allocated by EAL at startup
and should be cleaned up. This library has a check on a normal
(non-hugepage) variable to protect against double cleanup. The
service cores finalize() function itself frees back hugepage mem.
Given the fork() approach from the unit test, and the fact that
the double-free check is on an ordinary variable, causes multiple
child processed (fork()-ed from the unit-test runner) to attempt
to free the huge-page memory multiple times. The variable to
protect against double-cleanup was not effective, as the fork()
would restore it to show initialized in the next child.
The solution is to call rte_service_finalize() *before* calling
fork(), which results in the service cores double-cleanup variable
to be zero before the fork(), and hence the child processes never
free the hugepage service-cores memory (correct behavior, as the
unit-test suite is still running, and owns the hugepages).

drivers: improve pmdinfo generation with meson
Since meson 0.44, changing any file inside a PMD directory (quite
correctly) triggers a full re-run of meson on build, rather than an
incremental build as with earlier versions. This rerun is needed because
we use "grep" in meson to search for files on which to run pmdinfogen, and
changing any of those files means that grep and, therefore meson, needs to
be rerun. [Previous versions of meson did not track this dependency on the
grep command, and so did incremental builds only.]
If, however, we take advantage of pmdinfogen's ability to use stdin and
stdout instead of files, we can instead use a shell script to process an
entire static archive and generate a single .c file from it. This
eliminates the need for grep, and means that changes to a PMD file only
need an incremental build - a significant time saving.

test: build app with meson as dpdk-test
This patch enables the test/test app to be built. It also adds
the test binary to be a meson-test, which allows the meson test
infrastructure to be used to run tests.
Tests are listed using the same test binary, however each test
sets a different DPDK_TEST environment variable. The string contents
of this DPDK_TEST env var is entered in the command line interface.
As such, the familiar test names such as "ring_perf_autotest" etc
are valid tests to run using this meson test infrastructure.
Note that the tests are run serially, given that we cannot run
multiple primary processes at a time. As each test must initialize
EAL this takes some time depending on the number of hugepages.
In future, we could improve this to run multiple tests from one
EAL init, but it is out of scope for this patchset.
Finally, an option to build the tests is added to the meson build
options. When disabled, the unit test code in test/test is not
compiled. The default is set to 'true'. To disable, run:
$ meson configure -Dtests=false

Since the DPDK build now includes both static and shared libraries, we need

build: symlink drivers to library directory
With the introduction of bus drivers, we now have a situation where
driver libraries will start to depend upon each other. Because of this,
the driver libs need to be discoverable by the dynamic loader.
There are three options to fix this:
1. Force the user to put the $libdir/dpdk/drivers folder into their
library path.
2. Move all libraries from drivers sub-directory to $libdir.
3. Symlink all libraries from the subfolder to the main library dir.
Option 1 is not great for usability or distro packaging, and option 2
means that we can't have EAL load all drivers from a known path
automatically (as it would error out on non-PMD libs), so option 3 was
chosen as the best fix. The only downside is that on a "ninja uninstall"
the symlinks are not removed, as they are unknown to meson/ninja.

build: remove library special cases
The EAL and compat libraries were special-cases in the library build
process, the former because of it's complexity, and the latter because
it only consists of a single header file.
By reworking the EAL meson.build files, we can eliminate the need for it to
be a special case, by having it build up and return the list of sources,
headers, and objects and return those to the higher level build file. This
should also simplify the building of EAL, as we can eliminate a number of
meson.build files that would no longer be needed, and have fewer, but
larger meson.build files (9 now vs 14 previous) - thereby making the logic
easier to follow and items easier to find.
Once done, we can pull eal into the main library loop, with some
modifications to support it. Compat can also be pulled it once we add in a

This commit adds a top-level meson.build file, which sets up the global
variables for tracking drivers, libraries, etc., and then includes other
build files, before finishing by writing the global build configuration
header file and a DPDK pkgconfig file at the end, using some of those same
globals.
From the top level build file, the only include file thus far is for the
config folder, which does some other setup of global configuration
parameters, including pulling in architecture specific parameters from an
architectural subdirectory. A number of configuration build options are
provided for the project to tune a number of global variables which will be
used later e.g. max numa nodes, max cores, etc. These settings all make
their way to the global build config header "rte_build_config.h". There is
also a file "rte_config.h", which includes "rte_build_config.h", and this
file is meant to hold other build-time values which are present in our
current static build configuration but are not normally meant for
user-configuration. Ideally, over time, the values placed here should be
moved to the individual libraries or drivers which want those values.
