mempool: reduce structure size if no cache needed

The rte_mempool structure is changed, which will cause an ABI change
for this structure. Providing backward compat is not reasonable
here as this structure is used in multiple defines/inlines.

Allow mempool cache support to be dynamic depending on if the
mempool being created needs cache support. Saves about 1.5M of
memory used by the rte_mempool structure.

Allocating small mempools which do not require cache can consume
larges amounts of memory if you have a number of these mempools.

RTE_ETH_FLOW_MAX. The release 2.2 does not contain these ABI changes,
but release 2.3 will. [postponed]
* ABI change is planned for the rte_mempool structure to allow mempool
cache support to be dynamic depending on the mempool being created
needing cache support. Saves about 1.5M of memory per rte_mempool structure
by removing the per lcore cache memory. Change will occur in DPDK 16.07
release and will skip the define RTE_NEXT_ABI in DPDK 16.04 release. The
code affected is app/test/test_mempool.c and librte_mempool/rte_mempool.[ch].
The rte_mempool.local_cache will be converted from an array to a pointer to
allow for dynamic allocation of the per lcore cache memory.
* ABI will change for rte_mempool struct to move the cache-related fields
to the more appropriate rte_mempool_cache struct. The mempool API is
also changed to enable external cache management that is not tied to EAL

Refer to the previous release notes for examples.
* **Removed mempool cache if not needed.**
The size of the mempool structure is reduced if the per-lcore cache is disabled.
