Previously, the features list was indicating unsupported ENA PMD
features and were missing few ones, that were actually supported.
The features file was updated, so it is now reflecting current driver
state.
The documentation was updated with the more actual example and features,
especially ones which are ENA and not listed in the features file.

The ena driver has used dynamic log type to enable init debugging since
18.05 but the documentation still has leftover mention of the config
option.

Refer the section which explains driver compilation and running of
testpmd in Linux, instead of describing it in driver documentation.

The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be
promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch
adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.
The patch only changes the docs and not the code as the -c option
will continue to exist unless it is removed in the future. The -c
option should be kept to maintain backward compatibility.

Rename tools/ into usertools/ to differentiate from buildtools/
and devtools/ while making clear these scripts are part of
DPDK runtime.

The following tools may be installed system-wide.
It may be cleaner and more convenient to find them with the same
dpdk- prefix (especially for autocompletion).
Moreover, the script dpdk_nic_bind.py deserves a new name because it is
not restricted to NICs and can be used for e.g. crypto.
These files are renamed:
pmdinfogen -> dpdk-pmdinfogen
pmdinfo.py -> dpdk-pmdinfo.py
dpdk_pdump -> dpdk-pdump
dpdk_proc_info -> dpdk-procinfo
dpdk_nic_bind.py -> dpdk-devbind.py
setup.sh -> dpdk-setup.sh
The tools pmdinfogen, pmdinfo.py and dpdk_pdump are new in 16.07.
The scripts dpdk_nic_bind.py and setup.sh may have been used with
previous releases by end users. That's why a symbolic link still
provide the old name in the installed tools directory.
