6ba1affa54 lib: fix ABI version after device model rework
rte_device/driver generalization patches [1] were merged without a change
in the LIBABIVER variable. This patches bumps the macro of affected libs:

- libcryptodev and libetherdev have been bumped
- librte_eal version changed in
  d7e61ad3ae ("log: remove deprecated history dump")

Details of ABI/API changes:
- EAL [version already bumped in: d7e61ad3ae]
  |- type field was removed from rte_driver
  |- rte_pci_device now embeds rte_device
  |- rte_pci_resource renamed to rte_mem_resource
  |- numa_node and devargs of rte_pci_driver is moved to rte_driver
  |- APIs for device hotplug (attach/detach) moved into EAL
  |- API rte_eal_pci_device_name added for PCI device naming
  |- vdev registration API introduced (rte_eal_vdrv_register,
  |  rte_eal_vdrv_unregister

- librte_crypto (v 1=>2)
  |- removed rte_cryptodev_create_unique_device_name API
  |- moved device naming to EAL

- librte_ethdev (v 4=>5)
  |- rte_eth_dev_type is removed
  |- removed dev_type from rte_eth_dev_allocate API
  |- removed API rte_eth_dev_get_device_type
  |- removed API rte_eth_dev_get_addr_by_port
  |- removed API rte_eth_dev_get_port_by_addr
  |- removed rte_cryptodev_create_unique_device_name API
  |- moved device naming to EAL

Also, deprecation notice from 16.07 has been removed and release notes for
16.11 added.

8a9867a635 crypto/openssl: rename libcrypto to openssl
This patch replaces name "libcrypto" to "openssl" from file directories,
symbol prefixes and sub-names connected with old name.
Renamed poll mode driver files, test files, and documentations.
It is done to better name association with library because
the cryptography operations are using Openssl library crypto API.

cf7685d68f crypto/zuc: add driver for ZUC library
Added new SW PMD which makes use of the libsso SW library,
which provides wireless algorithms ZUC EEA3 and EIA3
in software.

This PMD supports cipher-only, hash-only and chained operations
("cipher then hash" and "hash then cipher") of the following
algorithms:
- RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_CIPHER_ZUC_EEA3
- RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_AUTH_ZUC_EIA3

The ZUC hash and cipher algorithms, which are enabled
by this crypto PMD are implemented by Intel's libsso software

init macros and helpers.
Those drivers then don't need to register as "rte_driver"s anymore.

- VDEV devices are not modified - they continue to use PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER.

cdfb776ba2 crypto: normalize driver names with macros
Recently reported, the introduction of pmd information exports led to a
breakage of cryptodev unit tests because the test infrastructure relies on the
cryptodev names being available in macros.  This patch fixes the pmd naming to
use the macro names.  Note that the macro names were already pre-stringified,
which won't work as the PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER macro requires the name in both a
processing token and stringified form.  As such the names are defined now as
tokens, and converted where needed to stringified form on demand using RTE_STR.

26c2e4ad5a cryptodev: add capabilities discovery
This patch add a mechanism for discovery of crypto device features and supported
crypto operations and algorithms. It also provides a method for a crypto PMD to
publish any data range limitations it may have for the operations and algorithms
it supports.

The parameter feature_flags added to rte_cryptodev struct is used to capture
features such as operations supported (symmetric crypto, operation chaining etc)
as well parameter such as whether the device is hardware accelerated or uses
SIMD instructions.

The capabilities parameter allows a PMD to define an array of supported operations
with any limitation which that implementation may have.

Finally the rte_cryptodev_info struct has been extended to allow retrieval of
these parameter using the existing rte_cryptodev_info_get() API.

features include:
 - Crypto device configuration / management APIs
 - Definitions of supported cipher algorithms and operations.
 - Definitions of supported hash/authentication algorithms and
   operations.
 - Crypto session management APIs
 - Crypto operation data structures and APIs allocation of crypto
   operation structure used to specify the crypto operations to
   be performed  on a particular mbuf.
 - Extension of mbuf to contain crypto operation data pointer and
   extra flags.
 - Burst enqueue / dequeue APIs for processing of crypto operations.
