22d2103dfe ethdev: use new ethernet parsing function
Use rte_eth_unformat_addr, so that ethdev can be built and work
without the cmdline library. The dependency on cmdline was
an arrangement of convenience anyway.

ad97ceece1 ethdev: add min/max MTU to device info
This addresses the usability issue raised by OVS at DPDK Userspace
summit. It adds general min/max MTU into device info. For compatibility,
and to save space, it fits in a hole in existing structure.

The initial version sets max MTU to normal Ethernet, it is up to
PMD to set larger value if it supports Jumbo frames.

Also remove the deprecation notice introduced in 18.11 regarding this
change and bump ethdev ABI version.

c712b01326 meter: unify packet color definition
Added new rte_color definition in librte_meter to
consolidate color definition which is currently replicated
in various places such as rte_meter.h, rte_tm.h and rte_mtr.h

Created aliases for rte_tm_color, rte_mtr_color and rte_meter_color
to use new rte_color values.

The definitions of rte_tm_color, rte_mtr_color and rte_meter_color
will be deprecated in future.

c10cdce180 ethdev: support MAC address as iterator filter
The MAC addresses of a port can be matched with devargs.

As the conflict between rte_ether.h and netinet/ether.h is not resolved,
the MAC parsing is done with a rte_cmdline function.
As a result, cmdline library becomes a dependency of ethdev.

deb373fb07 ethdev: add field for device data per process
Primary and secondary processes share a per-device private data. With
current design it is not possible to have data per-device per-process.
This is required for handling properly the CPP interface inside the NFP
PMD with multiprocess support.

There is also at least another PMD driver, tap, with similar
requirements for per-process device data.

600ce80536 ethdev: add private generic device iterator
This iterator can be customized with a comparison function that will
trigger a stopping condition.

It can be leveraged to write several different iterators that have
similar but non-identical purposes.

It is private to librte_ethdev.

db803c3e4c ethdev: bump library version
The old offload API is removed in 18.08,
so the library version must be increased,
in order to show the incompatibility with 18.05 one.

Fixes: ab3ce1e0c193 ("ethdev: remove old offload API")

01eb53eefe ethdev: rename folder to library name
Library folder name and output library name are same except a few flaws
including librte_ether.

This library is network device abstraction layer, the name "ethdev" fits
better than "ether", and library & header files already named as ethdev.

Also there is a rte_ether.h in the net library which can cause confusion.
