In heterogeneous computing system, processing is not only in the CPU.
Some tasks can be delegated to devices working in parallel.
The new library gpudev is for dealing with GPGPU computing devices
from a DPDK application running on the CPU.
The infrastructure is prepared to welcome drivers in drivers/gpu/.

The NICs overview table lists all supported features per driver.
There was a single row for "Flow API",
although rte_flow is composed of many items and actions.
The row "Flow API" is replaced with two new tables for items and actions.
Also, since rte_flow is not implemented in all drivers,
it would be ugly to add empty sections in some files.
That's why the error message for missing INI section is removed.
The lists are sorted alphabetically.
The extra files for some VF and vectorized data paths are not filled.

Add vDPA devices features table and explanation.
Any vDPA driver can add its own supported features by ading a new ini
file to the features directory in doc/guides/vdpadevs/features.

Build directories commonly have compiler in their names.
In order to filter build directories not starting with "build-"
(common with make), patterns for gcc and clang are added to .gitignore.

test-meson-build.sh generates multiple build directories for various
targets. As these follow a known pattern, and since they don't need
to be tracked in git, we can add them to the gitignore file,
along with the default build directory "build".

This script generates cscope, gtags, and tags index files based on
EAL environment(architecture and OS(linux/bsd)).
Selection of the architecture and OS environment is based on dpdk
configuration target(T=).If EAL environment(T=) is not specified,
the script generates tag files based on available source code.
Usage: make tags|cscope|gtags|etags [T=config]
example usage:
make cscope
make tags T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
make gtags T=arm64-armv8a-linuxapp-gcc

Convert the NIC feature table in the overview doc into a set of ini
files and add functions into the Sphinx conf.py file to auto-generate
them back into an RST table.
The reason for doing this is to make it easier for PMD maintainers to
update the feature matrix that makes up the table and to avoid
frequent and hard to resolve conflicts in doc/guides/nics/overview.rst.
A NIC/PMD feature matrix is now an ini file like the following:
$ head doc/guides/nics/nic_features/i40e.ini
;
; Features of the i40e network driver.
;
[Features]
Link status = Y
Link status event = Y
Rx interrupt = Y
Queue start/stop = Y
...
The output RST table matches the existing table with the column
headers sorted.
