The Linux Getting Started Guide contains
parts which are specific for i40e PMD. This results
in confusion for users which read the guide at their
first try with DPDK.
Moving those parts to the i40e NIC manual.

The UIO and VFIO sections should not be part of
the "Compiling the DPDK Target from Source" chapter,
as it is PMD specific and not true for all PMDs.
Instead, moving those sections to a new chapter
which include all kernel drivers being used along with
the different PMDs.

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.

Rename tools/ into usertools/ to differentiate from buildtools/
and devtools/ while making clear these scripts are part of
DPDK runtime.

The following tools may be installed system-wide.
It may be cleaner and more convenient to find them with the same
dpdk- prefix (especially for autocompletion).
Moreover, the script dpdk_nic_bind.py deserves a new name because it is
not restricted to NICs and can be used for e.g. crypto.
These files are renamed:
pmdinfogen -> dpdk-pmdinfogen
pmdinfo.py -> dpdk-pmdinfo.py
dpdk_pdump -> dpdk-pdump
dpdk_proc_info -> dpdk-procinfo
dpdk_nic_bind.py -> dpdk-devbind.py
setup.sh -> dpdk-setup.sh
The tools pmdinfogen, pmdinfo.py and dpdk_pdump are new in 16.07.
The scripts dpdk_nic_bind.py and setup.sh may have been used with
previous releases by end users. That's why a symbolic link still
provide the old name in the installed tools directory.

Add a new guide doc as part of the Linux Getting Started Guide.
The document is a step-by-step guide on how to get high performance
with DPDK on an Intel platform.
It is designed for users who are not familiar with DPDK but would like
to get the best performance with NICs.
