The corelist parameter for the multi-core scheduling mode
needed some extra explanation on how to use it.

Sample command lines for crypto scheduler were not correct,
due to:
- Typo in "crypto_scheduler" driver name
- Multiple virtual devices require having unique names,
driver name + a suffix, otherwise, just a single device is
created.

Multi-core scheduling mode is a mode where scheduler distributes
crypto operations in a round-robin base, between several core
assigned as workers.

The VDEV code will move to the bus drivers directory.
Rename functions from rte_eal_vdev_ to rte_vdev_
to prepare the move of the driver out of EAL.
The prefix rte_eal_vdrv_ is also renamed to rte_vdev_.
It was used for registration of vdev drivers.

Some scheduling modes may need extra options to be configured,
this patch adds the function prototype for setting/getting
options.

Fail-over mode works with 2 slaves, primary slave and secondary slave.
In this mode, the scheduler will enqueue the incoming crypto op burst
to the primary slave. When one or more crypto ops are failed to be
enqueued, they then will be enqueued to the secondary slave.

Packet-size based distribution mode is a scheduling mode works with 2
slaves, primary slave and secondary slave, and distribute the enqueued
crypto ops to them based on their data lengths. A crypto op will be
distributed to the primary slave if its data length equals or bigger
than the designated threshold, otherwise it will be handled by the
secondary slave.
