Meter arrays are stateful objects that are updated by the data plane
and configured & monitored by the control plane. The meters implement
the RFC 2698 Two Rate Three Color Marker (trTCM) algorithm.

Register arrays are stateful objects that can be read & modified by
both the data plane and the control plane, as opposed to tables, which
are read-only for data plane. One key use-case is the implementation
of stats counters.

Since the examples are designed to be built by end-users using Make, we
can detect and warn about broken pkg-config on the user's system as part
of the build process.

Once it has been determined that an example cannot be built, there is
little point in continuing to process the meson.build file for that
example, so we can use subdir_done() to return to the calling file.
This can potentially prevent problems where later statement in the file
may cause an error on systems where the app cannot be built, e.g. on
Windows or FreeBSD.

Replace master lcore with main lcore and
replace slave lcore with worker lcore.
Keep the old functions and macros but mark them as deprecated
for this release.
The "--master-lcore" command line option is also deprecated
and any usage will print a warning and use "--main-lcore"
as replacement.
