Rather than using linuxapp and bsdapp everywhere, we can change things to
use the, more readable, terms "linux" and "freebsd" in our build configs.
Rather than renaming the configs we can just duplicate the existing ones
with the new names using symlinks, and use the new names exclusively
internally. ["make showconfigs" also only shows the new names to keep the
list short] The result is that backward compatibility is kept fully but any
new builds or development can be done using the newer names, i.e. both
"make config T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc" and "T=x86_64-native-linux-gcc"
work.

Moved duplicated, and occasionally outdated, doc sections from each
of the sample app guides chapters to a common chapter at the start.
This reduces the duplication in the docs and provides a single
point of reference for compiling the sample apps.

L2fwd-crypto app was modified with various changes
in its code. The application user guide contains
some code snippets that needed to be updated.

This patch adds a new option to enable/disable the
MAC addresses updating done at forwarding time: --[no-]mac-updating
By default, MAC address updating remains enabled, to keep consistency
with previous usage.

Crypto driver names were changed in 16.11,
but some guides were still using the old ones
(which are still valid, only kept for compatibility
reasons).
To keep consistency and avoid confusion, all guides
should be using the same driver names.

Now that all the structures/functions for AEAD algorithms
are in place, migrate the two supported algorithms
AES-GCM and AES-CCM to these, instead of using
cipher and authentication parameters.

Authentication algorithms, such as AES-GMAC or the wireless
algorithms (like SNOW3G) use IV, like cipher algorithms.
So far, AES-GMAC has used the IV from the cipher structure,
and the wireless algorithms have used the AAD field,
which is not technically correct.
Therefore, authentication IV parameters have been added,
so API is more correct. Like cipher IV, auth IV is expected
to be copied after the crypto operation.

Previously, l2fwd-crypto application did not give user the
flexibility to decide which crypto device(s) will be used.
In this patch, a new cryptodev_mask option is added to the
application. Same as portmask, the cryptodev_mask avails the
user to mask out the unwanted crypto devices in the system.

L2fwd-crypto app was creating an array of strings for the
supported algorithms, which was different from the strings
that are now in cryptodev.
Use the new API in cryptodev to parse the string from the user,
to get the algorithm enum, instead, so it is not necessary to add
a new supported algorithm in the cryptodev library and this app.

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.
