The mempool cache is only available to EAL threads as a per-lcore
resource. Change this so that the user can create and provide their own
cache on mempool get and put operations. This works with non-EAL threads
too. This commit introduces the new API calls:
rte_mempool_cache_create(size, socket_id)
rte_mempool_cache_free(cache)
rte_mempool_cache_flush(cache, mp)
rte_mempool_default_cache(mp, lcore_id)
Changes the API calls:
rte_mempool_generic_put(mp, obj_table, n, cache, flags)
rte_mempool_generic_get(mp, obj_table, n, cache, flags)
The cache-oblivious API calls use the per-lcore default local cache.

Until now, the objects stored in a mempool were internally stored in a
ring. This patch introduces the possibility to register external handlers
replacing the ring.
The default behavior remains unchanged, but calling the new function
rte_mempool_set_ops_byname() right after rte_mempool_create_empty() allows
the user to change the handler that will be used when populating
the mempool.
This patch also adds a set of default ops (function callbacks) based
on rte_ring.

The log history uses rte_mempool. In order to remove the mempool
dependency in EAL (and improve the build), this feature is deprecated.
The ABI is kept but the behaviour is now voided because it seems this
function was not used. The history can be read from syslog.

This change adds automatic figure references to the docs. The
figure numbers in the generated Html and PDF docs are now
automatically numbered based on section.
Requires Sphinx >= 1.3.1.
The patch makes the following changes.
* Changes image:: tag to figure:: and moves image caption
to the figure.
* Adds captions to figures that didn't previously have any.
* Un-templates the |image-name| substitution definitions
into explicit figure:: tags. They weren't used more
than once anyway and Sphinx doesn't support them
for figure.
* Adds a target to each image that didn't previously
have one so that they can be cross-referenced.
* Renamed existing image target to match the image
name for consistency.
* Replaces the Figures lists with automatic :numref:
:ref: entries to generate automatic numbering
and captions.
* Replaces "Figure" references with automatic :numref:
references.

Changed all image.svg and image.png extensions to image.*
This allows Sphinx to decide the appropriate image type
from the available image options.
In case of PDF, SVG images are converted and Sphinx must pick
the converted version.

The 1.7 DPDK_Prog_Guide document in MSWord has been converted to rst format for
use with Sphinx. There is an rst file for each chapter and an index.rst file
which contains the table of contents.
The top level index file has been modified to include this guide.
This document contains some png image files. If any of these png files are modified
they should be replaced with an svg file.
This is the sixth document from a set of 6 documents.
