This new API allows reacting to a device removal.
A device removal is the sudden disappearance of a device from its
bus.
PMDs implementing support for this notification guarantee that the removal
of the underlying device does not incur a risk to the application.
In particular, Rx/Tx bursts and all other functions can still be called
(albeit likely returning errors) without triggering a crash, irrespective
of an application handling this event.

This moves the rte_eth_copy_pci_info() into the PCI specific ethdev
header. As a side effect this also removes it from the list of symbols
exported by the rte_ethdev library.

This adds the following helper intended to be used by rte_pci_driver
implementations working with ethdev:
- rte_eth_dev_pci_allocate
- rte_eth_dev_pci_release
- rte_eth_dev_pci_generic_probe
- rte_eth_dev_pci_generic_remove
