fbaf943887 build: remove individual library versions
Since the library versioning for both stable and experimental ABI's is
now managed globally, the LIBABIVER and version variables no longer
serve any useful purpose, and can be removed.

The replacement in Makefiles was done using the following regex:

	^(#.*\n)?LIBABIVER\s*:=\s*\d+\n(\s*\n)?

(LIBABIVER := numbers, optionally preceded by a comment and optionally
succeeded by an empty line)

The replacement for meson files was done using the following regex:

	^(#.*\n)?version\s*=\s*\d+\n(\s*\n)?

(version = numbers, optionally preceded by a comment and optionally
succeeded by an empty line)

[David]: those variables are manually removed for the files:
- drivers/common/qat/Makefile
- lib/librte_eal/meson.build
[David]: the LIBABIVER is restored for the external ethtool example
library.

530588f3cd drivers: add reasons for components being disabled
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.

dc7680e859 net/netvsc: support integrated VF
Integrate accelerated networking support into netvsc PMD.
This allows netvsc to manage VF without using failsafe or vdev_netvsc.
For the exception vswitch path some tests like transmit
get a 22% increase in packets/sec.
For the VF path, the code is slightly shorter but has no
real change in performance.

Pro:
   * using netvsc is more like other DPDK NIC's
   * the exception packet uses less CPU
   * much smaller code size
   * no locking required on VF transmit/receive path
   * no legacy Linux network device to get mangled by userspace
   * much simpler (1K vs 9K) LOC
   * unified extended statistics

Con:
   * using netvsc has more complex startup model
   * no bifurcated driver support
   * no flow support (since host does not have flow API).
   * no tunnel offload support
   * no receive interrupt support

c49825f895 build: fix meson build on FreeBSD
A number of drivers have dependencies on libraries which
are only built on Linux, and so they need to be disabled
on FreeBSD. Rather than basing the disabling on OS, in
each case we base the building of the library on the
presence of the required dependency.

Fixes: 50385c106021 ("net/ifc: add to meson build")
Fixes: 4e9c73e96e83 ("net/netvsc: add Hyper-V network device")
Fixes: 5936aa3a39b9 ("net/vhost: add to meson build")

4e9c73e96e net/netvsc: add Hyper-V network device
The driver supports Hyper-V networking directly like
virtio for KVM or vmxnet3 for VMware.

This code is based off of the FreeBSD driver. The file and variable
names are kept the same to help with understanding (with most of the
BSD style warts removed).

This version supports the latest NetVSP 6.1 version and
older versions.
