Start a new release cycle with empty release notes.
The ABI version becomes 23.0.
The map files are updated to the new ABI major number (23).
The ABI exceptions are dropped and CI ABI checks are disabled because
compatibility is not preserved.
Special handling of removed drivers is also dropped in check-abi.sh and
a note has been added in libabigail.abignore as a reminder.

Make sure all functions which use the convention that XXX_free(NULL)
is a nop are all documented.
The wording is chosen to match the documentation of free(3).
"If ptr is NULL, no operation is performed."

[David: squashed with other series updates, unified wording]
In theory ACL library allows fields with 8B long.
Though in practice they usually not used, not tested,
and as was revealed by Ido, this functionality is not working properly.
There are few places inside ACL build code-path that need to be addressed.

The AltiVec header file is defining "vector", except in C++ build.
The keyword "vector" may conflict easily.
As a rule, it is better to use the alternative keyword "__vector",
so we will be able to #undef vector after including AltiVec header.
Later it may become possible to #undef vector in rte_altivec.h
with a compatibility breakage.

Some public header files were missing 'extern "C"' C++ guards,
and couldn't be used by C++ applications. Add the missing guards.

AVX512 was disabled when GNU binutils were missing or had a known bug,
even if LLVM binutils were used for the build,
because binutils-avx512-check.sh was invoked regardless and failed.
In particular, this was the case for FreeBSD with clang (default).
Run the check only when GNU binutils are used.
Fixes: 68b1f1cda5 ("build: check AVX512 rather than binutils version")

Rather than maintaining a separate list of libraries which are to be
built on windows, use the standard library list and explicitly add to
each library that is not to be built a check for windows and disable
the library at that per-lib level. As well as shortening the main
lib/meson.build file, this also leads to the build summary at the end of
the meson config run correctly listing the libraries which are not to be
built.

The private headers are compiled internally with a C compiler.
Thus extern "C" declaration is useless in such files.

--buildtype=debug with gcc 6.3 produces the following error:
../lib/librte_acl/acl_run_avx512_common.h: In function
‘resolve_match_idx_avx512x16’:

^~~~~
Seems like gcc-6.3 complains about the following construct:
static const uint32_t match_log = 5;
...
_mm512_slli_epi32(mi, match_log);
It can't substitute constant variable 'match_log' with its actual value.
The fix replaces constant variable with its immediate value.

gcc 11 with '-O2' complains about some variables being used without
being initialized:
In function ‘start_flow_avx512x8’,
inlined from ‘search_trie_avx512x8.constprop’ at acl_run_avx512_common.h:317:
lib/librte_acl/acl_run_avx512_common.h:210:13: warning:
‘pdata’ is used uninitialized [-Wuninitialized]
In function ‘search_trie_avx512x8.constprop’:
lib/librte_acl/acl_run_avx512_common.h:314:32: note: ‘pdata’ declared here
...
Indeed, these variables are not explicitly initialized,
but this is done intentionally.
We rely on constant mask value that we pass to start_flow*() functions
as a parameter to mask out uninitialized values.
Note that '-O3' doesn't produce this warning.
Anyway, to support clean build with gcc-11 this patch adds
explicit initialization for these variables.
I checked the output binary: with '-O3' both clang and gcc 10/11
generate no extra code for it.
Also performance test didn't reveal any regressions.

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'
