db27370b57 eal: replace blacklist/whitelist options
Replace -w / --pci-whitelist with -a / --allow options
and --pci-blacklist with --block.
The -b short option remains unchanged.

Allow the old options for now, but print a nag
warning since old options are deprecated.

31246a328f mempool/octeontx2: add devargs to lock context in cache
Add device arguments to lock NPA aura and pool contexts in NDC cache.
The device args take hexadecimal bitmask where each bit represent the
corresponding aura/pool id.
Example:
	-w 0002:02:00.0,npa_lock_mask=0xf // Lock first 4 aura/pool ctx

218c4e68c1 mk: use linux and freebsd in config names
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.

a9de470cc7 test: move to app directory
Since all other apps have been moved to the "app" folder, the autotest app
remains alone in the test folder. Rather than having an entire top-level
folder for this, we can move it back to where it all started in early
versions of DPDK - the "app/" folder.

This move has a couple of advantages:
* This reduces clutter at the top level of the project, due to one less
  folder.
* It eliminates the separate build task necessary for building the
  autotests using make "make test-build" which means that developers are
  less likely to miss something in their own compilation tests
* It re-aligns the final location of the test binary in the app folder when
  building with make with it's location in the source tree.

For meson builds, the autotest app is different from the other apps in that
it needs a series of different test cases defined for it for use by "meson
test". Therefore, it does not get built as part of the main loop in the
app folder, but gets built separately at the end.
