Tunnel type is an enum in PKT_TX_TUNNEL_MASK bits.
As the result, for example, IPIP or MPLSinUDP tunnel packets may be
incorrectly treated internally as VXLAN.

This patch adds GSO support for UDP/IPv4 packets. Supported packets
may include a single VLAN tag. UDP/IPv4 GSO doesn't check if input
packets have correct checksums, and doesn't update checksums for
output packets (the responsibility for this lies with the application).
Additionally, UDP/IPv4 GSO doesn't process IP fragmented packets.
UDP/IPv4 GSO uses two chained MBUFs, one direct MBUF and one indrect
MBUF, to organize an output packet. The direct MBUF stores the packet
header, while the indirect mbuf simply points to a location within the
original packet's payload. Consequently, use of UDP GSO requires
multi-segment MBUF support in the TX functions of the NIC driver.
If a packet is GSO'd, UDP/IPv4 GSO reduces its MBUF refcnt by 1. As a
result, when all of its GSOed segments are freed, the packet is freed
automatically.

Add non-EAL libraries to DPDK build. The compat lib is a special case,
along with the previously-added EAL, but all other libs can be build using
the same set of commands, where the individual meson.build files only need
to specify their dependencies, source files, header files and ABI versions.

The list of libraries in LDLIBS was generated from the DEPDIRS-xyz
variable. This is valid when the subdirectory name match the library
name, but it's not always the case, especially for PMDs.
The patches removes this feature and explicitly adds the proper
libraries in LDLIBS.
Some DEPDIRS-xyz variables become useless, remove them.

This patch adds GSO support for GRE-tunneled packets. Supported GRE
packets must contain an outer IPv4 header, and inner TCP/IPv4 headers.
They may also contain a single VLAN tag. GRE GSO doesn't check if all
input packets have correct checksums and doesn't update checksums for
output packets. Additionally, it doesn't process IP fragmented packets.
As with VxLAN GSO, GRE GSO uses a two-segment MBUF to organize each
output packet, which requires multi-segment mbuf support in the TX
functions of the NIC driver. Also, if a packet is GSOed, GRE GSO reduces
its MBUF refcnt by 1. As a result, when all of its GSOed segments are
freed, the packet is freed automatically.

This patch adds a framework that allows GSO on tunneled packets.
Furthermore, it leverages that framework to provide GSO support for
VxLAN-encapsulated packets.
Supported VxLAN packets must have an outer IPv4 header (prepended by an
optional VLAN tag), and contain an inner TCP/IPv4 packet (with an optional
inner VLAN tag).
VxLAN GSO doesn't check if input packets have correct checksums and
doesn't update checksums for output packets. Additionally, it doesn't
process IP fragmented packets.
As with TCP/IPv4 GSO, VxLAN GSO uses a two-segment MBUF to organize each
output packet, which mandates support for multi-segment mbufs in the TX
functions of the NIC driver. Also, if a packet is GSOed, VxLAN GSO
reduces its MBUF refcnt by 1. As a result, when all of its GSO'd segments
are freed, the packet is freed automatically.

Generic Segmentation Offload (GSO) is a SW technique to split large
packets into small ones. Akin to TSO, GSO enables applications to
operate on large packets, thus reducing per-packet processing overhead.
To enable more flexibility to applications, DPDK GSO is implemented
as a standalone library. Applications explicitly use the GSO library
to segment packets. To segment a packet requires two steps. The first
is to set proper flags to mbuf->ol_flags, where the flags are the same
as that of TSO. The second is to call the segmentation API,
rte_gso_segment(). This patch introduces the GSO API framework to DPDK.
rte_gso_segment() splits an input packet into small ones in each
invocation. The GSO library refers to these small packets generated
by rte_gso_segment() as GSO segments. Each of the newly-created GSO
segments is organized as a two-segment MBUF, where the first segment is a
standard MBUF, which stores a copy of packet header, and the second is an
indirect MBUF which points to a section of data in the input packet.
rte_gso_segment() reduces the refcnt of the input packet by 1. Therefore,
when all GSO segments are freed, the input packet is freed automatically.
Additionally, since each GSO segment has multiple MBUFs (i.e. 2 MBUFs),
the driver of the interface which the GSO segments are sent to should
support to transmit multi-segment packets.
The GSO framework clears the PKT_TX_TCP_SEG flag for both the input
packet, and all produced GSO segments in the event of success, since
segmentation in hardware is no longer required at that point.
