In order to achieve reproducible builds, always use the same
order when listing object files to build dependencies lists.

Before this patch, the management of dependencies between directories
had several issues:
- the generation of .depdirs, done at configuration is slow: it can take
more than one minute on some slow targets (usually ~10s on a standard
PC without -j).
- for instance, it is possible to express a dependency like:
- app/foo depends on lib/librte_foo
- and lib/librte_foo depends on app/bar
But this won't work because the directories are traversed with a
depth-first algorithm, so we have to choose between doing 'app' before
or after 'lib'.
- the script depdirs-rule.sh is too complex.
- we cannot use "make -d" for debug, because the output of make is used for
the generation of .depdirs.
This patch moves the DEPDIRS-* variables in the upper Makefile, making
the dependencies much easier to calculate. A DEPDIRS variable is still
used to process library dependencies in LDLIBS.
After this commit, "make config" is almost immediate.

pmdinfogen is a tool used to parse object files and build json strings for
use in later determining hardware support in a dso or application binary.
pmdinfo looks for the non-exported symbol names this_pmd_name<n> and
this_pmd_tbl<n> (where n is a integer counter). It records the name of
each of these tuples, using the later to find the symbolic name of the
pci_table for physical devices that the object supports. With this
information, it outputs a C file with a single line of the form:
static char *<pmd_name>_driver_info[] __attribute__((used)) = " \
PMD_DRIVER_INFO=<json string>";
Where <pmd_name> is the arbitrary name of the pmd, and <json_string> is the
json encoded string that hold relevant pmd information, including the pmd
name, type and optional array of pci device/vendor ids that the driver
supports.
This c file is suitable for compiling to object code, then relocatably
linking into the parent file from which the C was generated. This creates
an entry in the string table of the object that can inform a later tool
about hardware support.

This commit removes trailing whitespace from lines in files. Almost all
files are affected, as the BSD license copyright header had trailing
whitespace on 4 lines in it [hence the number of files reporting 8 lines
changed in the diffstat].
