Add FIB (Forwarding Information Base) library. This library
implements a dataplane structures and algorithms designed for
fast longest prefix match.
Internally it consists of two parts - RIB (control plane ops) and
implementation for the dataplane tasks.
Initial version provides two implementations for both IPv4 and IPv6:
dummy (uses RIB as a dataplane) and DIR24_8 (same as current LPM)
Due to proposed design it allows to extend FIB with new algorithms
in future (for example DXR, poptrie, etc).

Add RIB (Routing Information Base) library. This library
implements an IPv4 routing table optimized for control plane
operations. It implements a control plane struct containing routes
in a tree and provides fast add/del operations for routes.
Also it allows to perform fast subtree traversals
(i.e. retrieve existing subroutes for a given prefix).
This structure will be used as a control plane helper structure
for FIB implementation. Also it might be used standalone in other
different places such as bitmaps for example.
Internal implementation is level compressed binary trie.

The compat.h header file provided macros for two purposes:
1. it provided the macros for marking functions as rte_experimental
2. it provided the macros for doing function versioning
Although these were in the same file, #1 is something that is for use by
public header files, which #2 is for internal use only. Therefore, we can
split these into two headers, keeping #1 in rte_compat.h and #2 in a new
file rte_function_versioning.h. For "make" builds, since internal objects
pick up the headers from the "include/" folder, we need to add the new
header to the installation list, but for "meson" builds it does not need to
be installed as it's not for public use.
The rework also serves to allow the use of the function versioning macros
to files that actually need them, so the use of experimental functions does
not need including of the versioning code.

This example can be removed because DPDK now has a range
of libraries, especially rte_eventdev, that did not exist
previously for load balancing, making this less relevant.
Also, modern NIC cards have greater ability to do load balancing,
e.g. using RSS, over a wider range of fields than earlier cards did.

If there are multiple threads contending, they all attempt to take the
spinlock lock at the same time once it is released. This results in a
huge amount of processor bus traffic, which is a huge performance
killer. Thus, if we somehow order the lock-takers so that they know who
is next in line for the resource we can vastly reduce the amount of bus
traffic.
This patch added MCS lock library. It provides scalability by spinning
on a CPU/thread local variable which avoids expensive cache bouncings.
It provides fairness by maintaining a list of acquirers and passing the
lock to each CPU/thread in the order they acquired the lock.

Replace the mbuf pointer array in the event eth Rx adapter
callback with an event array. Using an event array allows
the application to change attributes of the events enqueued
by the SW adapter.
The callback can drop packets and populate a callback
argument with the number of dropped packets. Add a Rx adapter
stats field to keep track of the total number of dropped packets.
This commit removes the experimental tags from
the callback and stats APIs, the experimental tag from eventdev
is also removed and eventdev functions become part of the
main DPDK API/ABI.
