While make has been deprecated for DPDK, it's still applicable for
some example apps to be built standalone, this patch adjusts the
guides to take that into consideration.

Replace master lcore with main lcore and
replace slave lcore with worker lcore.
Keep the old functions and macros but mark them as deprecated
for this release.
The "--master-lcore" command line option is also deprecated
and any usage will print a warning and use "--main-lcore"
as replacement.

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.

The __rte_cache_aligned was applied to the whole array,
not the array elements. This leads to a false sharing between
the monitored cores.

Moved duplicated, and occasionally outdated, doc sections from each
of the sample app guides chapters to a common chapter at the start.
This reduces the duplication in the docs and provides a single
point of reference for compiling the sample apps.

The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be
promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch
adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.
The patch only changes the docs and not the code as the -c option
will continue to exist unless it is removed in the future. The -c
option should be kept to maintain backward compatibility.

This patch fixes some mismatches between the keepalive code
and the docs. Struct names, and descriptions are not in line
with the codebase.

MANY references in the sample applications user guide are wrong because
they are hard-coded and section numbers have changed over the time.
This patch changes thoses references to dynamic ones, in this way if
section numbers change the reference get updated automatically.
