3e7b87dddb doc: add freebsd ports
Since the DPDK is now part of the BSD ports collection, we should
recommend installing from ports as the best way to get it up and
running.
In order to achieve this, while still keeping the document readable, the
chapter on system requirements has been moved to instead be a section
within the chapter on compiling the DPDK outside of the ports
collection. This move is necessary, since it covered a lot of detail on
installing other ports required to build DPDK. These steps are not
needed when installing DPDK itself from ports.

f9e2411af0 doc: adjust line lengths in freebsd guide
The FreeBSD GSG rst files had very inconsistent line lengths for text
within paragraph blocks. Sometimes a line would be very short, while often
lines would be quite long.
This patch adjusts the formatting of the rst files so that lines break
at approx the 80-character mark, as is standard in the DPDK source code.

62814bc2e9 mbuf: rename RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER into RTE_MBUF_REFCNT
It seems that RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER is not the proper name for the
feature it provides. "Scatter gather" means that data is stored using
several buffers. RTE_MBUF_REFCNT seems to be a better name for that
feature as it provides a reference counter for mbufs.

The macro RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER is poisoned to ensure this
modification is seen by drivers or applications using it.

b3688bee81 pipeline: new packet framework logic
The Packet Framework pipeline library provides a standard methodology
(logically similar to OpenFlow) for rapid development of complex packet
processing pipelines out of ports, tables and actions.

A pipeline is constructed by connecting its input ports to its output ports
through a chain of lookup tables. As result of lookup operation into the
current table, one of the table entries (or the default table entry, in case
of lookup miss) is identified to provide the actions to be executed on the
current packet and the associated action meta-data.

The behavior of user actions is defined through the configurable table action
handler, while the reserved actions define the next hop for the current packet
(either another table, an output port or packet drop) and are handled
transparently by the framework.
