Since the built driver filenames have changed in DPDK 20.11, we need to
update the driver doc to match.
Most drivers start their section with the driver filename highlighted in
bold, while a number were missing the highlight. When updating the names,
add the markers for bold text to any missing it, so as to have things more
consistent.

thunderx-nic uses secondary VF's to provide more queues to DPDK.
Current instructions explain the concept but don't show an easy way to
find which PCI id is primary and which is secondary VF's.
This patch extending the documentation of secondary VF w.r.t
the enumeration details.

Rather than using linuxapp and bsdapp everywhere, we can change things to
use the, more readable, terms "linux" and "freebsd" in our build configs.
Rather than renaming the configs we can just duplicate the existing ones
with the new names using symlinks, and use the new names exclusively
internally. ["make showconfigs" also only shows the new names to keep the
list short] The result is that backward compatibility is kept fully but any
new builds or development can be done using the newer names, i.e. both
"make config T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc" and "T=x86_64-native-linux-gcc"
work.

Removed the hardcoded preconfigured Rx VLAN offload configuration
from testpmd and changed the Rx offload command line parameters from
disable to enable.
It has been decided by the Technical Board that testers who wish to
use these offloads will now have to explicitly write them in the
command-line when running testpmd.
The agreement is to keep two exceptions enabled by default in 18.02:
Rx CRC strip and Tx fast free.
Motivation:
Some PMDs such at the mlx4 may not implement all the offloads.
After the offload API rework assuming no offload is enabled by default,
commit ce17eddefc ("ethdev: introduce Rx queue offloads API")
commit cba7f53b71 ("ethdev: introduce Tx queue offloads API") trying
to enable a not supported offload is clearly an error which will cause
configuration failing.
Considering that testpmd is an application to test the PMD, it should
not fail on a configuration which was not explicitly requested.
The behavior of this test application is then turned to an opt-in
model.

The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be
promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch
adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.
The patch only changes the docs and not the code as the -c option
will continue to exist unless it is removed in the future. The -c
option should be kept to maintain backward compatibility.

The following tools may be installed system-wide.
It may be cleaner and more convenient to find them with the same
dpdk- prefix (especially for autocompletion).
Moreover, the script dpdk_nic_bind.py deserves a new name because it is
not restricted to NICs and can be used for e.g. crypto.
These files are renamed:
pmdinfogen -> dpdk-pmdinfogen
pmdinfo.py -> dpdk-pmdinfo.py
dpdk_pdump -> dpdk-pdump
dpdk_proc_info -> dpdk-procinfo
dpdk_nic_bind.py -> dpdk-devbind.py
setup.sh -> dpdk-setup.sh
The tools pmdinfogen, pmdinfo.py and dpdk_pdump are new in 16.07.
The scripts dpdk_nic_bind.py and setup.sh may have been used with
previous releases by end users. That's why a symbolic link still
provide the old name in the installed tools directory.
