As discussed in the past release, driver names are modified
to be more consistent, and the future driver should follow
this new convention.
Driver names consist of:
"driver category"_"driver folder name"_"optional extra name".
For example:
- Crypto null driver -> "crypto_null"
- Network IXGBE VF driver -> "net_ixgbe_vf"

This patch provides the implementation of a NULL crypto PMD, which supports
NULL cipher and NULL authentication operations, which can be chained together
as follows:
- Authentication Only
- Cipher Only
- Authentication then Cipher
- Cipher then Authentication
As this is a NULL operation device the crypto operations which are submitted for
processing are not actually modified and are stored in a queue pairs processed
packets ring ready for collection when rte_cryptodev_burst_dequeue() is called.
The patch also contains the related unit tests function to test the PMDs
supported operations.
