Some DPDK applications wrongly assume these requirements:
- no hotplug, i.e. ports are never detached
- all allocated ports are available to the application
Such application iterates over ports by its own mean.
The most common pattern is to request the port count and
assume ports with index in the range [0..count[ can be used.
In order to fix this common mistake in all external applications,
the function rte_eth_dev_count is deprecated, while introducing
the new functions rte_eth_dev_count_avail and rte_eth_dev_count_total.

All PCI functionality should be hidden from apps via the PCI bus driver,
the EAL and individual device drivers. Therefore remove the inclusion of
rte_pci.h from sample apps.

To avoid confusion with distributor app, this commit
renames the flow-distributor sample app to server_node_efd,
since it shows how to use the EFD library and it is based
on a server/nodes model.
