Regular expressions are not the best way to match a hierarchical
pattern like dynamic log levels. And the separator for dynamic
log levels is period which is the regex wildcard character.
A better solution is to use filename matching 'globbing' so
that log levels match like file paths. For compatibility,
use colon to separate pattern match style arguments. For
example:
--log-level 'pmd.net.virtio.*:debug'
This also makes the documentation match what really happens
internally.

Any flags added to the project args are automatically added to all builds,
both native and cross-compiled. This is not what we want for the -march
flag as a valid -march for the cross-compile is not valid for pmdinfogen
which is a native-build tool.
Instead we store the march flag as a variable, and add it to the default
cflags for all libs, drivers, examples, etc. This will allow pmdinfogen to
compile successfully in a cross-compilation environment.

The EAL and compat libraries were special-cases in the library build
process, the former because of it's complexity, and the latter because
it only consists of a single header file.
By reworking the EAL meson.build files, we can eliminate the need for it to
be a special case, by having it build up and return the list of sources,
headers, and objects and return those to the higher level build file. This
should also simplify the building of EAL, as we can eliminate a number of
meson.build files that would no longer be needed, and have fewer, but
larger meson.build files (9 now vs 14 previous) - thereby making the logic
easier to follow and items easier to find.
Once done, we can pull eal into the main library loop, with some
modifications to support it. Compat can also be pulled it once we add in a
check to handle the case of an empty sources list.

Introduce 2 new functions to support dynamic log types:
- rte_log_register(): register a log name, and return a log type id
- rte_log_set_level(): set the log level of a given log type
