Primary and secondary processes share a per-device private data. With
current design it is not possible to have data per-device per-process.
This is required for handling properly the CPP interface inside the NFP
PMD with multiprocess support.
There is also at least another PMD driver, tap, with similar
requirements for per-process device data.

This iterator can be customized with a comparison function that will
trigger a stopping condition.
It can be leveraged to write several different iterators that have
similar but non-identical purposes.
It is private to librte_ethdev.

The old offload API is removed in 18.08,
so the library version must be increased,
in order to show the incompatibility with 18.05 one.

Library folder name and output library name are same except a few flaws
including librte_ether.
This library is network device abstraction layer, the name "ethdev" fits
better than "ether", and library & header files already named as ethdev.
Also there is a rte_ether.h in the net library which can cause confusion.
