The Tx functions were in enic_ethdev.c and enic_main.c - files in which
they did not logically belong. To make things consistent with most
other drivers, we therefore extract them and place them with the equivalent
Rx functions into a file called enic_rxtx.c.

This is a wholesale replacement of the Enic PMD receive path in order
to improve performance and code clarity. The changes are:
- Simplify and reduce code path length of receive function.
- Put most of the fast-path receive functions in one file.
- Reduce the number of posted_index updates (pay attention to
rx_free_thresh)
- Remove the unneeded container structure around the RQ mbuf ring
- Prefetch next Mbuf and descriptors while processing the current one
- Use a lookup table for converting CQ flags to mbuf flags.

Move malloc inside eal and create a new section in MAINTAINERS file for
Memory Allocation in EAL.
Create a dummy malloc library to avoid breaking applications that have
librte_malloc in their DT_NEEDED entries.
This is the first step towards using malloc to allocate memory directly
from memsegs. Thus, memzones would allocate memory through malloc,
allowing to free memzones.
