2ee98e69e1 mbuf: clean old refcnt option
CONFIG_RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER was renamed into CONFIG_RTE_MBUF_REFCNT
by commit 62814bc2e923 and removed by commit 4769bc5a27cc.
Some traces remain because of delayed patches.

It can also be removed from doxygen config.
It is now poisoned in rte_mbuf.h to warn any misuse.

Fixes: d0dff9ba445e ("doc: sample application user guide")
Fixes: fc1f2750a3ec ("doc: programmers guide")
Fixes: 4769bc5a27cc ("mbuf: remove build option to disable refcnt")

ad37b97d8d mlx4: remove old VMware compatibility code
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_MLX4_COMPAT_VMWARE has no effect since this option enables
MLX4_PMD_COMPAT_VMWARE. This macro is not used by the PMD which expects
MLX4_COMPAT_VMWARE instead.

Because this option does not work and the related code is no longer useful
for VMware (as it actually supports the flow steering API), remove it
entirely.

In Release 1.8, the mbuf structure was significantly reworked to add

description of the library in the programmer's guide document needs
