b32037f7ef mempool: use specific macro for object alignment
For consistency, RTE_MEMPOOL_ALIGN should be used in place of
RTE_CACHE_LINE_SIZE. They have the same value, because the only arch
that was defining a specific value for it has been removed from DPDK.

84626a0d61 mempool: prevent objects from being across pages
When populating a mempool, ensure that objects are not located across
several pages, except if user did not request IOVA-contiguous objects.

23bdcedcd8 mempool: introduce helpers for populate and required size
Introduce new functions that can used by mempool drivers to
calculate required memory size and to populate mempool.

For now, these helpers just replace the *_default() functions
without change. They will be enhanced in next commit.

eba11e3646 mempool: reduce wasted space on populate
The size returned by rte_mempool_op_calc_mem_size_default() is aligned
to the specified page size. Therefore, with big pages, the returned size
can be much more that what we really need to populate the mempool.

For instance, populating a mempool that requires 1.1GB of memory with
1GB hugepages can result in allocating 2GB of memory.

This problem is hidden most of the time due to the allocation method of
rte_mempool_populate_default(): when try_iova_contig_mempool=true, it
first tries to allocate an iova contiguous area, without the alignment
constraint. If it fails, it fallbacks to an aligned allocation that does
not require to be iova-contiguous. This can also fallback into several
smaller aligned allocations.

This commit changes rte_mempool_op_calc_mem_size_default() to relax the
alignment constraint to a cache line and to return a smaller size.

91ad034919 mempool: fold memory size calculation helper
rte_mempool_calc_mem_size_helper() was introduced to avoid
code duplication and used in deprecated rte_mempool_mem_size() and
rte_mempool_op_calc_mem_size_default(). Now the first one is removed
and it is better to fold the helper into the second one to make it
more readable.

fd943c764a mempool: deprecate xmem functions
Move rte_mempool_xmem_size() code to internal helper function
since it is required in two places: deprecated rte_mempool_xmem_size()
and non-deprecated rte_mempool_op_calc_mem_size_default().

ce1f2c61ed mempool: remove callback to get capabilities
The callback was introduced to let generic code to know octeontx
mempool driver requirements to use single physically contiguous
memory chunk to store all objects and align object address to
total object size. Now these requirements are met using a new
callbacks to calculate required memory chunk size and to populate
objects using provided memory chunk.

These capability flags are not used anywhere else.

Restricting capabilities to flags is not generic and likely to
be insufficient to describe mempool driver features. If required
in the future, API which returns structured information may be
added.

puts objects one by one is available.

0a48646893 mempool: add op to calculate memory size to be allocated
Size of memory chunk required to populate mempool objects depends
on how objects are stored in the memory. Different mempool drivers
may have different requirements and a new operation allows to
calculate memory size in accordance with driver requirements and
advertise requirements on minimum memory chunk size and alignment
in a generic way.

Bump ABI version since the patch breaks it.
