f6cefe253c app/crypto-perf: add range/list of sizes
So far, the crypto performance application was only able to
test one buffer size and one burst size.

With this commit, multiple sizes can be passed, either as a range
of values or as a list of values.

35b09d76f8 doc: use corelist instead of coremask
The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be
promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch
adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.

The patch only changes the docs and not the code as the -c option
will continue to exist unless it is removed in the future. The -c
option should be kept to maintain backward compatibility.

9d3ad924c2 doc: add basic guide for devbind
This summarizes the "how to call dpdk-devbind" in one place to be
picked up by html/pdf/man-page docs.

That knowledge was available before but spread in various docs along
examples (which are great and have to be kept) as well as in the
--usage/--help option of the tool itself.

As a root only program in sbin it should belong to section 8
"8   System administration commands (usually only for root)"

d644886398 doc: move tool guides in their own subdirectory
This is to clarify the scope of these documents that are more tools than
sample applications.
Also this is a preparation step to add more tools and generate man pages
off of their rst files.
