83984b7f3a cryptodev: add AEAD specific data
AEAD algorithms such as AES-GCM needed to be
used as a concatenation of a cipher transform and
an authentication transform.

Instead, a new transform and functions to handle it
are created to support these kind of algorithms,
making their use easier.

c711ccb309 ivshmem: remove library and its EAL integration
Following discussions on the mailing list [1] and since nobody stood up to
implement the necessary cleanups, here is the ivshmem integration removal.

There is not much to say about this patch, a lot of code is being removed.
The default configuration file for packet_ordering example is replaced with
the "native" x86 file.
The only tricky part is in eal_memory with the memseg index stuff.

More cleanups can be done after this but will come in subsequent patchsets.

14b5e69972 doc: update mbuf section of programmers guide
In Release 1.8, the mbuf structure was significantly reworked to add
extra information, leading to the structure being split across two
cache lines, and the data pointer being replaced by an offset. The
description of the library in the programmer's guide document needs
to be updated to take account of these changes.

fc1f2750a3 doc: programmers guide
The 1.7 DPDK_Prog_Guide document in MSWord has been converted to rst format for
use with Sphinx. There is an rst file for each chapter and an index.rst file
which contains the table of contents.
The top level index file has been modified to include this guide.

This document contains some png image files. If any of these png files are modified
they should be replaced with an svg file.

This is the sixth document from a set of 6 documents.
