d4cb819758 cfgfile: support runtime modification
Extend existing cfgfile library with providing new API functions:

rte_cfgfile_create() - create new cfgfile object
rte_cfgfile_add_section() - add new section to existing cfgfile
object
rte_cfgfile_add_entry() - add new entry to existing cfgfile
object in specified section
rte_cfgfile_set_entry() - update existing entry in cfgfile object
rte_cfgfile_save() - save existing cfgfile object to INI file

This modification allows to create a cfgfile on
runtime and opens up the possibility to have applications
dynamically build up a proper DPDK configuration, rather than having
to have a pre-existing one.

703be9531a member: add AVX for HT mode
For key search, the signatures of all entries are compared against
the signature of the key that is being looked up. Since all
signatures are contiguously put in a bucket, they can be compared
with vector instructions (AVX2), achieving higher lookup performance.

54b8edc07c member: implement vBF mode
Bloom Filter (BF) [1] is a well-known space-efficient
probabilistic data structure that answers set membership queries.
Vector of Bloom Filters (vBF) is an extension to traditional BF
that supports multi-set membership testing. Traditional BF will
return found or not-found for each key. vBF will also return
which set the key belongs to if it is found.

Since each set requires a BF, vBF should be used when set count
is small. vBF's false positive rate could be set appropriately so
that its memory requirement and lookup speed is better in certain
cases comparing to HT based set-summary.

This patch adds the vBF implementation.

904ec78a23 member: implement HT mode
One of the set-summary structures is hash-table based
set-summary (HTSS). One example is cuckoo filter [1].

Comparing to a traditional hash table, HTSS has a much more
compact structure. For each element, only one signature and
its corresponding set ID is stored. No key comparison is required
during lookup. For the table structure, there are multiple entries
in each bucket, and the table is composed of many buckets.

Two modes are supported for HTSS, "cache" and "none-cache" modes.
The non-cache mode is similar to the cuckoo filter [1].
When a bucket is full, one entry will be evicted to its
alternative bucket to make space for the new key. The table could
be full and then no more keys could be inserted. This mode has
false-positive rate but no false-negative. Multiple entries
with same signature could stay in the same bucket.

The "cache" mode does not evict key to its alternative bucket
when a bucket is full, an existing key will be evicted out of
the table like a cache. Thus, the table will never reject keys when
it is full. Another property is in each bucket, there cannot be
multiple entries with same signature. The mode could have both
false-positive and false-negative probability.

This patch adds the implementation of HTSS.

857ed6c68c member: implement main API
Membership library is an extension and generalization of a traditional
filter (for example Bloom Filter and cuckoo filter) structure.
In general, the Membership library is a data structure that provides a
"set-summary" and responds to set-membership queries of whether a
certain element belongs to a set(s). A membership test for an element
will return the set this element belongs to or not-found if the
element is never inserted into the set-summary.

The results of the membership test are not 100% accurate. Certain
false positive or false negative probability could exist. However,
comparing to a "full-blown" complete list of elements, a "set-summary"
is memory efficient and fast on lookup.

This patch adds the main API definition.

98b8ec7060 hash: fix eviction counter
When adding a new entry in a hash table, there is
a maximum number of evictions that can be
performed. When the counter of these evictions reaches
this maximum, the entry cannot be added, as it is considered
that the algorithm has encountered an infinite loop.

The problem with the current implementation, is that this
counter was declared as a static variable.
If there are multiple threads adding entries in the same table
or in different tables, they should access different counters,
one per core and per table.

Therefore, the variable has been modified to be non-static.

56d5c1079e mempool: introduce block size alignment flag
Some mempool hw like octeontx/fpa block, demands block size
(/total_elem_sz) aligned object start address.

Introducing an MEMPOOL_F_CAPA_BLK_ALIGNED_OBJECTS flag.
If this flag is set:
- Align object start address(vaddr) to a multiple of total_elt_sz.
- Allocate one additional object. Additional object is needed to make
  sure that requested 'n' object gets correctly populated.

Example:
- Let's say that we get 'x' size of memory chunk from memzone.
- And application has requested 'n' object from mempool.
- Ideally, we start using objects at start address 0 to...(x-block_sz)
  for n obj.
- Not necessarily first object address i.e. 0 is aligned to block_sz.
- So we derive 'offset' value for block_sz alignment purpose i.e..'off'.
- That 'off' makes sure that start address of object is blk_sz aligned.
- Calculating 'off' may end up sacrificing first block_sz area of
  memzone area x. So total number of the object which can fit in the
  pool area is n-1, Which is incorrect behavior.

Therefore we request one additional object (/block_sz area) from memzone
when MEMPOOL_F_CAPA_BLK_ALIGNED_OBJECTS flag is set.

429cf8d802 ethdev: get supported mempool per port
Now that dpdk supports more than one mempool drivers and
each mempool driver works best for specific PMD, example:
- sw ring based mempool for Intel PMD drivers.
- dpaa2 HW mempool manager for dpaa2 PMD driver.
- fpa HW mempool manager for Octeontx PMD driver.

Application would like to know the best mempool handle
for any port.

Introducing rte_eth_dev_pool_ops_supported() API,
which allows PMD driver to advertise
his supported pool capability to the application.

Supported pools are categorized in below priority:-
- Best mempool handle for this port (Highest priority '0')
- Port supports this mempool handle (Priority '1')
