Make ACL library to build/work on 'default' architecture:
- make rte_acl_classify_scalar really scalar
(make sure it wouldn't use sse4 instrincts through resolve_priority()).
- Provide two versions of rte_acl_classify code path:
rte_acl_classify_sse() - could be build and used only on systems with sse4.2
and upper, return -ENOTSUP on lower arch.
rte_acl_classify_scalar() - a slower version, but could be build and used
on all systems.
- Addition of a new function rte_acl_classify_alg. This function lets you
specify an enum value to override the acl contexts default algorithm when doing
a classification. This allows an application to specify a classification
algorithm without needing to publicize each method. I know there was concern
over keeping those methods public, but we don't have a static ABI at the moment,
so this seems to me a reasonable thing to do, as it gives us less of an ABI
surface to worry about.
- keep common code shared between these two codepaths.

Since the data structures such as rings are shared in their entirety,
those TAILQ pointers are shared as well. Meaning that, after a
successful rte_ring creation, the tailq_next pointer of the last
ring in the TAILQ will be updated with a pointer to a ring which may
not be present in the address space of another process (i.e. a ring
that may be host-local or guest-local, and not shared over IVSHMEM).
Any successive ring create/lookup on the other side of IVSHMEM will
result in trying to dereference an invalid pointer.
This patchset fixes this problem by creating a default tailq entry
that may be used by any data structure that chooses to use TAILQs.
This default TAILQ entry will consist of a tailq_next/tailq_prev
pointers, and an opaque pointer to arbitrary data. All TAILQ
pointers from data structures themselves will be removed and
replaced by those generic TAILQ entries, thus fixing the problem
of potentially exposing local address space to shared structures.
Technically, only rte_ring structure require modification, because
IVSHMEM is only using memzones (which aren't in TAILQs) and rings,
but for consistency's sake other TAILQ-based data structures were
adapted as well.

The function rte_snprintf serves no useful purpose. It is the
same as snprintf() for all valid inputs. Deprecate it and
replace all uses in current code.
Leave the tests for the deprecated function in place.

The ACL library is used to perform an N-tuple search over a set of rules with
multiple categories and find the best match for each category.
