The build-sdk-meson.rst file originates from the short plain-text meson
instructions added in 2018. Add SPDX tag and copyright notice based on the

The "note" callouts in the chapter describing the meson build were
incorrectly formatted, so adjust to use the correct markdown syntax.

Rather than setting -Bstatic in the linker flags when doing a static link,
and then having to explicitly set -Bdynamic again afterwards, we can update
the pkg-config file to use -l:libfoo.a syntax to explicitly refer to the
static library in question. Since this syntax is not supported by meson's
pkg-config module directly, we can post-process the .pc files instead to
adjust them.
Once done, we can simplify the examples' makefiles and the docs by removing
the explicit static flag.

Define the public API for trace support.
This patch also adds support for the build infrastructure and
update the MAINTAINERS file for the trace subsystem.
The 8 bytes tracepoint object is a global variable, and can be used in
fast path. Created a new __rte_trace_point section to store the
tracepoint objects as,
- It is a mostly read-only data and not to mix with other "write"
global variables.
- Chances that the same subsystem fast path variables come in the same
fast path cache line. i.e, it will enable a more predictable
performance number from build to build.
