Mempool is a generic allocator that is not necessarily used
for device IO operations and its memory for DMA.
Add MEMPOOL_F_NON_IO flag to mark such mempools automatically
a) if their objects are not contiguous;
b) if IOVA is not available for any object.
Other components can inspect this flag
in order to optimize their memory management.

Data path performance can benefit if the PMD knows which memory it will
need to handle in advance, before the first mbuf is sent to the PMD.
It is impractical, however, to consider all allocated memory for this
purpose. Most often mbuf memory comes from mempools that can come and
go. PMD can enumerate existing mempools on device start, but it also
needs to track creation and destruction of mempools after the forwarding
starts but before an mbuf from the new mempool is sent to the device.
Add an API to register callback for mempool life cycle events:
* rte_mempool_event_callback_register()
* rte_mempool_event_callback_unregister()
Currently tracked events are:
* RTE_MEMPOOL_EVENT_READY (after populating a mempool)
* RTE_MEMPOOL_EVENT_DESTROY (before freeing a mempool)
Provide a unit test for the new API.
The new API is internal, because it is primarily demanded by PMDs that
may need to deal with any mempools and do not control their creation,
while an application, on the other hand, knows which mempools it creates
and doesn't care about internal mempools PMDs might create.

If we do not enforce valid flags are passed by an application, this
application might face issues in the future when we add more flags.

Use correct define as a name array size.
The change breaks ABI and therefore cannot be backported to
stable branches.

Currently there are some public headers that include 'sys/queue.h', which
is not POSIX, but usually provided by the Linux/BSD system library.
(Not in POSIX.1, POSIX.1-2001, or POSIX.1-2008. Present on the BSDs.)
The file is missing on Windows. During the Windows build, DPDK uses a
bundled copy, so building a DPDK library works fine. But when OVS or other
applications use DPDK as a library, because some DPDK public headers
include 'sys/queue.h', on Windows, it triggers an error due to no such
file.
One solution is to install the 'lib/eal/windows/include/sys/queue.h' into
Windows environment, such as [1]. However, this means DPDK exports the
functionalities of 'sys/queue.h' into the environment, which might cause
symbols, macros, headers clashing with other applications.
The patch fixes it by removing the "#include <sys/queue.h>" from
DPDK public headers, so programs including DPDK headers don't depend
on the system to provide 'sys/queue.h'. When these public headers use
macros such as TAILQ_xxx, we replace it by the ones with RTE_ prefix.
For Windows, we copy the definitions from <sys/queue.h> to rte_os.h
in Windows EAL. Note that these RTE_ macros are compatible with
<sys/queue.h>, both at the level of API (to use with <sys/queue.h>
macros in C files) and ABI (to avoid breaking it).
Additionally, the TAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE is not part of <sys/queue.h>,
the patch replaces it with RTE_TAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE.

The map files are updated to the new ABI major number (22).
The ABI exceptions are dropped and CI ABI checks are disabled because
compatibility is not preserved.

If cache is enabled, objects will be retrieved/put from/to cache,
subsequently from/to the common pool. Now the debug stats calculate
the objects retrieved/put from/to cache and pool together, it is
better to distinguish them.

There is no reason for the DPDK libraries to all have 'librte_' prefix on
the directory names. This prefix makes the directory names longer and also
makes it awkward to add features referring to individual libraries in the
build - should the lib names be specified with or without the prefix.
Therefore, we can just remove the library prefix and use the library's
unique name as the directory name, i.e. 'eal' rather than 'librte_eal'
