This patch enables building the e1000 driver for Windows.
I tested using two Windows VM on top of VMware Fusion,
creating two e1000 devices with device ID 0x10D3 (8274L),
verifying rx/tx works correctly using dpdk-testpmd.exe
rxonly and txonly mode.

The NICs overview table lists all supported features per driver.
There was a single row for "Flow API",
although rte_flow is composed of many items and actions.
The row "Flow API" is replaced with two new tables for items and actions.
Also, since rte_flow is not implemented in all drivers,
it would be ugly to add empty sections in some files.
That's why the error message for missing INI section is removed.
The lists are sorted alphabetically.
The extra files for some VF and vectorized data paths are not filled.

Add support to the e1000 igb driver for the new API to force free
consumed buffers on Tx ring. This API is independent of the tx_rs_thresh
setting. With this API, buffers should be free even if tx_rs_thresh is
not met.
e1000 igb driver does not implement a tx_rs_thresh to free mbufs, it
frees a slot in the ring as needed. However, it could be implemented at
some future date.

Convert the NIC feature table in the overview doc into a set of ini
files and add functions into the Sphinx conf.py file to auto-generate
them back into an RST table.
The reason for doing this is to make it easier for PMD maintainers to
update the feature matrix that makes up the table and to avoid
frequent and hard to resolve conflicts in doc/guides/nics/overview.rst.
A NIC/PMD feature matrix is now an ini file like the following:
$ head doc/guides/nics/nic_features/i40e.ini
;
; Features of the i40e network driver.
;
[Features]
Link status = Y
Link status event = Y
Rx interrupt = Y
Queue start/stop = Y
...
The output RST table matches the existing table with the column
headers sorted.
