Starting in meson 0.56, the functions meson.source_root() and
meson.build_root() are deprecated and to be replaced by the [more
descriptive] functions: project_source_root()/global_source_root() and
project_build_root()/global_build_root(). Unfortunately, these new
replacement functions were only added in 0.56 release too, so to use
them we would need version checks for old/new functions to remove the
deprecation warnings.
However, the functions "current_build_dir()" and "current_source_dir()"
remain unaffected by all this, so we can bypass the versioning problem,
by saving off these values to "dpdk_source_root" and "dpdk_build_root"
in the top-level meson.build file

Switch from using tabs to 4 spaces for meson.build indentation, for the
basic infrastructure and tooling files, as well as doc and kernel
directories.

Clang is the system compiler for FreeBSD and kernel module builds can fail
when built with gcc, e.g. when testing with test-meson-builds.sh.
Therefore, it's safer to always use clang to build the kmods since the
actual flags used are outside of DPDK's control and cannot be guaranteed to
work with all compilers.

Set the install path for the kernel modules as /boot/modules. This may
ease the integration with the official FreeBSD ports system as all
components should be correctly located in the staging directory after
running "ninja install"

The meson.build files for building the kernel modules directory could
be improved now that it is extracted from the EAL. For example, no
global processing is necessary inside the kernel folder, just need to
subdir to the appropriate bsd or linux folder to do the actual work.
To avoid potential race conditions with the BSD module builds when
the kernel build system is creating the dev_if.h and other files,
we serialize the kernel module builds (all 2 of them!) by setting
up each module to depend on all the previous.
