Some versions of pkg-config don't support the --path flag, which is not a
fatal error when building the apps. Without the flag, the makefile just
cannot track the .pc file of DPDK as a dependency of the build. Therefore,
we can ignore the error and suppress it by redirecting to /dev/null the
stderr from that call to pkg-config.

Not all versions of pkg-config in distros have support for the
--define-prefix flag [1], causing errors when building examples manually or
with test-meson-builds.sh script [2].
For the former case, we need to remove the hard-coded use of the flag in
the Makefiles.
For the latter case, the flag is necessary for builds to succeed, so we
skip the tests when it's not present, passing it as part of the pkg-config
command if it is supported.

Use rxtx callback to demonstrate a way to use rte_eth_read_clock to
convert the hardware timestamps to an amount of cycles.
This allows to get the amount of time the packet spent since its entry
in the device. While the regular latency only shows the latency from
when it entered the software stack.

The "make clean" command had a number of issues:
- the "--ignore-fail-on-non-empty" flag is not present on BSD
- the call to remove the build folder would fail if there was no build
folder present.
These are fixed by only removing the build folder if it exists, and by
using -p flag to rmdir in place of --ignore-fail-on-non-empty

Most examples have in their makefiles a default RTE_TARGET directory to be
used in case RTE_TARGET is not set. Rather than just using a hard-coded
default, we can instead detect what the build directory is relative to
RTE_SDK directory.
This fixes a potential issue for anyone who continues to build using
"make install T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc" and skips setting RTE_TARGET
explicitly, instead relying on the fact that they were building in a
directory which corresponded to the example default path - which was
changed to "x86_64-native-linux-gcc" by commit 218c4e68c1 ("mk: use
linux and freebsd in config names").

Rather than using linuxapp and bsdapp everywhere, we can change things to
use the, more readable, terms "linux" and "freebsd" in our build configs.
Rather than renaming the configs we can just duplicate the existing ones
with the new names using symlinks, and use the new names exclusively
internally. ["make showconfigs" also only shows the new names to keep the
list short] The result is that backward compatibility is kept fully but any
new builds or development can be done using the newer names, i.e. both
"make config T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc" and "T=x86_64-native-linux-gcc"
work.

The basic operations for ports enumeration should not be
considered as experimental in DPDK 18.05.
The iterator RTE_ETH_FOREACH_DEV was introduced in DPDK 17.05.
It uses the function the rte_eth_find_next_owned_by() to get
only ownerless ports. Its API can be considered stable.
So the flag experimental is removed from rte_eth_find_next_owned_by().
The flag experimental is removed from rte_eth_dev_count_avail()
which is the new name of the old function rte_eth_dev_count().
The flag experimental is set to rte_eth_dev_count_total()
in the .c file for consistency with the declaration in the .h file.
A lot of internal applications are fixed to not allow experimental API.

Some DPDK applications wrongly assume these requirements:
- no hotplug, i.e. ports are never detached
- all allocated ports are available to the application
Such application iterates over ports by its own mean.
The most common pattern is to request the port count and
assume ports with index in the range [0..count[ can be used.
There are three consequences when using such wrong design:
- new ports having an index higher than the port count won't be seen
- old ports being detached (RTE_ETH_DEV_UNUSED) can be seen as ghosts
- failsafe sub-devices (RTE_ETH_DEV_DEFERRED) will be seen by the application
Such mistake will be less common with growing hotplug awareness.
All applications and examples inside this repository - except testpmd -
must be fixed to use the iterator RTE_ETH_FOREACH_DEV.

Since the DPDK build now includes both static and shared libraries, we need
a new way to enable building the examples using either method from the one
installation. To do this, we add in a default "shared" target, and a
separate "static" target which links in the DPDK static libraries. In both
cases, the final application name is symlinked to the last-built static or
shared target, with both binaries able to co-exist in the build directory.

Change the example app Makefiles to query if DPDK is installed and
registered using pkg-config. If so, build directly using pkg-config info,
otherwise fall back to using the original build system with RTE_SDK and
RTE_TARGET
This commit changes the makefiles for the basic examples, i.e. those which
do not have multiple subdirectories underneath the main examples dir.
Examples not covered are:
* ethtool
* multi_process
* performance-thread
* quota_watermark
* netmap_compat
* server_node_efd
* vm_power_manager

Reorder the text in the makefiles, so that the app name and the source
files are listed first. This then will allow them to be shared later in a
combined makefile building with pkg-config and RTE_SDK-based build system.
