net: remove ethernet packing and set two-byte alignment

Browse Source 
The ether header does not need to be packed since that makes no sense for
structures with only bytes in them, but it should be aligned to a two-byte
boundary to simplify access to it from code. Other packed structures that
use this also need to be updated to take account of the change, either by
removing packing - where it is clearly unneeded - or by explicitly giving
those structures 2-byte alignment also.

structure would be made internal (or removed if all dependencies are cleared)
in future releases.
* net: The Ethernet address and header definitions will change
attributes. The Ethernet address struct will no longer be marked as
packed since the packed attribute is meaningless on a byte
array. The Ethernet header will be marked as aligned on a 2-byte
boundary and will no longer have the packed attribute. This allows
for efficient access on CPU architectures where unaligned access is
expensive. These changes should not impact normal usage because drivers
naturally align the Ethernet header on receive and all known
encapsulations preserve the alignment of the header.
* ethdev: The function ``rte_eth_dev_count`` will be removed in DPDK 20.02.
It is replaced by the function ``rte_eth_dev_count_avail``.
If the intent is to iterate over ports, ``RTE_ETH_FOREACH_*`` macros
