Since the built driver filenames have changed in DPDK 20.11, we need to
update the driver doc to match.
Most drivers start their section with the driver filename highlighted in
bold, while a number were missing the highlight. When updating the names,
add the markers for bold text to any missing it, so as to have things more
consistent.

Documentation of some virtual crypto PMDs have a sample command line
to show how to initialize the device on a specific application,
L2fwd-crypto.
This was meant to be used as a reference, but these lines themselves
do not work, as the sample application used required more parameters,
which are added in this commit to have a fully functional example.

The VDEV code will move to the bus drivers directory.
Rename functions from rte_eal_vdev_ to rte_vdev_
to prepare the move of the driver out of EAL.
The prefix rte_eal_vdrv_ is also renamed to rte_vdev_.
It was used for registration of vdev drivers.

The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be
promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch
adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.
The patch only changes the docs and not the code as the -c option
will continue to exist unless it is removed in the future. The -c
option should be kept to maintain backward compatibility.

As discussed in the past release, driver names are modified
to be more consistent, and the future driver should follow
this new convention.
Driver names consist of:
"driver category"_"driver folder name"_"optional extra name".
For example:
- Crypto null driver -> "crypto_null"
- Network IXGBE VF driver -> "net_ixgbe_vf"

This patch provides the implementation of a NULL crypto PMD, which supports
NULL cipher and NULL authentication operations, which can be chained together
as follows:
- Authentication Only
- Cipher Only
- Authentication then Cipher
- Cipher then Authentication
As this is a NULL operation device the crypto operations which are submitted for
processing are not actually modified and are stored in a queue pairs processed
packets ring ready for collection when rte_cryptodev_burst_dequeue() is called.
The patch also contains the related unit tests function to test the PMDs
supported operations.
