Performing large memory copies usually takes up a major part of CPU
cycles and becomes the hot spot in vhost-user enqueue operation. To
offload the large copies from CPU to the DMA devices, asynchronous
APIs are introduced, with which the CPU just submits copy jobs to
the DMA but without waiting for its copy completion. Thus, there is
no CPU intervention during data transfer. We can save precious CPU
cycles and improve the overall throughput for vhost-user based
applications. This patch introduces registration/un-registration
APIs for vhost async data enqueue operation. Together with the
registration APIs implementations, data structures and the prototype
of the async callback functions required for async enqueue data path
are also defined.

This patch split the vDPA header file in two, making
rte_vdpa_device structure opaque to the application.
Applications should only include rte_vdpa.h, while drivers
should include both rte_vdpa.h and rte_vdpa_dev.h.

Remove setting ALLOW_EXPERIMENTAL_API individually for each Makefile and
meson.build. Instead, enable ALLOW_EXPERIMENTAL_API flag across app, lib
and drivers.
This changes reduces the clutter across the project while still
maintaining the functionality of ALLOW_EXPERIMENTAL_API i.e. warning
external applications about experimental API usage.

Since the library versioning for both stable and experimental ABI's is
now managed globally, the LIBABIVER and version variables no longer
serve any useful purpose, and can be removed.
The replacement in Makefiles was done using the following regex:
^(#.*\n)?LIBABIVER\s*:=\s*\d+\n(\s*\n)?
(LIBABIVER := numbers, optionally preceded by a comment and optionally
succeeded by an empty line)
The replacement for meson files was done using the following regex:
^(#.*\n)?version\s*=\s*\d+\n(\s*\n)?
(version = numbers, optionally preceded by a comment and optionally
succeeded by an empty line)
[David]: those variables are manually removed for the files:
- drivers/common/qat/Makefile
- lib/librte_eal/meson.build
[David]: the LIBABIVER is restored for the external ethtool example
library.

Postcopy live-migration features relies on userfaultfd,
which was only introduced in kernel v4.3.
This patch introduces a new define to allow building vhost
library on kernels not supporting userfaultfd.
With legacy build system, user has to explicitly set
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_VHOST_POSTCOPY to 'y'.
With Meson build system, RTE_LIBRTE_VHOST_POSTCOPY gets
automatically defined if userfaultfd kernel header is
present.

This patch set introduces support for selective datapath in DPDK vhost-user
lib. vDPA stands for vhost Data Path Acceleration. The idea is to support
virtio ring compatible devices to serve virtio driver directly to enable
datapath acceleration.
A set of device ops is defined for device specific operations:
a. get_queue_num: Called to get supported queue number of the device.
b. get_features: Called to get supported features of the device.
c. get_protocol_features: Called to get supported protocol features of
the device.
d. dev_conf: Called to configure the actual device when the virtio
device becomes ready.
e. dev_close: Called to close the actual device when the virtio device
is stopped.
f. set_vring_state: Called to change the state of the vring in the
actual device when vring state changes.
g. set_features: Called to set the negotiated features to device.
h. migration_done: Called to allow the device to response to RARP
sending.
i. get_vfio_group_fd: Called to get the VFIO group fd of the device.
j. get_vfio_device_fd: Called to get the VFIO device fd of the device.
k. get_notify_area: Called to get the notify area info of the queue.

DPDK has an optional dependency on libnuma, so manage that through the
