This patch fixes buffer overflow reported by ASAN,
please reference https://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=819
The rte_lpm6 keeps routing information for control plane purpose
inside the rte_hash table which uses rte_jhash() as a hash function.
From the rte_jhash() documentation: If input key is not aligned to
four byte boundaries or a multiple of four bytes in length,
the memory region just after may be read (but not used in the
computation).
rte_lpm6 uses 17 bytes keys consisting of IPv6 address (16 bytes) +
depth (1 byte).
This patch increases the size of the depth field up to uint32_t
and sets the alignment to 4 bytes.

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'
