This commit adds support for lock-free (linked list based) stack mempool
handler.
In mempool_perf_autotest the lock-based stack outperforms the
lock-free handler for certain lcore/alloc count/free count
combinations*, however:
- For applications with preemptible pthreads, a standard (lock-based)
stack's worst-case performance (i.e. one thread being preempted while
holding the spinlock) is much worse than the lock-free stack's.
- Using per-thread mempool caches will largely mitigate the performance
difference.
*Test setup: x86_64 build with default config, dual-socket Xeon E5-2699 v4,
running on isolcpus cores with a tickless scheduler. The lock-based stack's
rate_persec was 0.6x-3.5x the lock-free stack's.

This commit adds support for a lock-free (linked list based) stack to the
stack API. This behavior is selected through a new rte_stack_create() flag,
RTE_STACK_F_LF.
The stack consists of a linked list of elements, each containing a data
pointer and a next pointer, and an atomic stack depth counter.
The lock-free push operation enqueues a linked list of pointers by pointing
the tail of the list to the current stack head, and using a CAS to swing
the stack head pointer to the head of the list. The operation retries if it
is unsuccessful (i.e. the list changed between reading the head and
modifying it), else it adjusts the stack length and returns.
The lock-free pop operation first reserves num elements by adjusting the
stack length, to ensure the dequeue operation will succeed without
blocking. It then dequeues pointers by walking the list -- starting from
the head -- then swinging the head pointer (using a CAS as well). While
walking the list, the data pointers are recorded in an object table.
This algorithm stack uses a 128-bit compare-and-swap instruction, which
atomically updates the stack top pointer and a modification counter, to
protect against the ABA problem.
The linked list elements themselves are maintained in a lock-free LIFO
list, and are allocated before stack pushes and freed after stack pops.
Since the stack has a fixed maximum depth, these elements do not need to be
dynamically created.

The rte_stack library provides an API for configuration and use of a
bounded stack of pointers. Push and pop operations are MT-safe, allowing
concurrent access, and the interface supports pushing and popping multiple
pointers at a time.
The library's interface is modeled after another DPDK data structure,
rte_ring, and its lock-based implementation is derived from the stack
mempool handler. An upcoming commit will migrate the stack mempool handler
to rte_stack.

uint16_t nb_queue_pairs;
/**< Number of queue pairs to configure on device */
