Before this patch, the management of dependencies between directories
had several issues:
- the generation of .depdirs, done at configuration is slow: it can take
more than one minute on some slow targets (usually ~10s on a standard
PC without -j).
- for instance, it is possible to express a dependency like:
- app/foo depends on lib/librte_foo
- and lib/librte_foo depends on app/bar
But this won't work because the directories are traversed with a
depth-first algorithm, so we have to choose between doing 'app' before
or after 'lib'.
- the script depdirs-rule.sh is too complex.
- we cannot use "make -d" for debug, because the output of make is used for
the generation of .depdirs.
This patch moves the DEPDIRS-* variables in the upper Makefile, making
the dependencies much easier to calculate. A DEPDIRS variable is still
used to process library dependencies in LDLIBS.
After this commit, "make config" is almost immediate.

Exported header files used by applications should allow the strictest
compiler flags. Language extensions used in many places must be explicitly
marked to avoid warnings and compilation failures.
Unnamed structs/unions are allowed since C11, however many compiler
versions do not use this mode by default.
This commit prevents the following errors:
error: ISO C99 doesn't support unnamed structs/unions
error: struct has no named members

In other libraries, dependency list is always appended to, but
in commit 6cbf4f75e0 it with an assignment. This causes the
librte_eal dependency added in commit 6cbf4f75e0 to get discarded,
resulting in missing dependency on librte_eal.

Two new pipeline API functions have been added to the library. The packet
hijack API function can be called by any input/output port or table action
handler to remove selected packets from the burst of packets read from one
of the pipeline input ports and then either send these packets out through
any pipeline output port or drop them.
Another packet drop API function can be used by the pipeline action
handlers (port in/out, table) to drop the packets selected using packet
mask. This function updates the drop statistics counters correctly.

Currently, there is no mechanism that allows the pipeline ports (in/out)
and table action handlers to override the default forwarding decision
(as previously configured per input port or in the table entry). The port
(in/out) and table action handler prototypes have been changed to allow
pipeline action handlers (port in/out, table) to remove the selected
packets from the further pipeline processing and to take full ownership
for these packets. This feature will be helpful to implement functions
such as exception handling (e.g. TTL =0), load balancing etc.

Fix RTE_MBUF_METADATA macros to allow for unaligned accesses to
meta-data fields.
Forcing aligned accesses is not really required, so this is removing an
unneeded constraint.
This issue was met during testing of the new version of the ip_pipeline
application. There is no performance impact.
This change has no ABI impact, as the previous code that uses aligned
accesses continues to run without any issues.

The pipeline header file includes the mbuf header file, but it does not
need to do so as it only uses pointers to the struct rte_mbuf type, and
does not use any of the mbuf internals, nor any of the mbuf functions or
macros. Therefore the inclusion is unnecessary, and can be replaced by a
forward declaration of the mbuf type.

To differentiate libraries that break ABI, we add a library version number
suffix to the library, which must be incremented when a given libraries ABI is
broken. This patch enforces that addition, sets the initial abi soname
extension to 1 for each library and creates a symlink to the base SONAME so that
the test applications will link properly.

The Packet Framework pipeline library provides a standard methodology
(logically similar to OpenFlow) for rapid development of complex packet
processing pipelines out of ports, tables and actions.
A pipeline is constructed by connecting its input ports to its output ports
through a chain of lookup tables. As result of lookup operation into the
current table, one of the table entries (or the default table entry, in case
of lookup miss) is identified to provide the actions to be executed on the
current packet and the associated action meta-data.
The behavior of user actions is defined through the configurable table action
handler, while the reserved actions define the next hop for the current packet
(either another table, an output port or packet drop) and are handled
transparently by the framework.
