The meson build was missing the define to enable pcap port support if
libpcap (development) package was found on the build platform. Rather than
duplicating the checks for libpcap found in the pcap net PMD build file, we
can move the checks to the top-level config directory and reference the
RTE_PCAP_PORT setting elsewhere in the build.

For each driver where we optionally disable it, add in the reason why it's
being disabled, so the user knows how to fix it.

pcap has historically shipped a custom pcap-config binary tool which
does the job of pkg-config. It was never compatible with cross
compilation.
Meson uses it when using dependency(), which then means cross
compilation fails.
Set pcap-config to empty in the meson cross compilation files so
that Meson will not use it, and add a fallback in case
dependency() fails.
libpcap 1.9.0 finally ships a pkg-config file so everything will
work out of the box in the future.

Rather than trying to use meson's build-in detection for libpcap, and
having to special-case cross-building, just check for the presence of
pcap.h and the pcap library.

The detection of pcap as a dependency involves invoking pcap-config to get
parameters - something not possible in a cross-compilation environment.
Therefore we need to just look for the presence of the library in a
cross-compilation environment and assume if the library is present we can
compile and link against it.
