The representor id is added in rte_eth_dev_data in order to be able
to match a port with its representor id in devargs.

This is a clean-up of common ethdev data freeing.
All data freeing are moved to rte_eth_dev_release_port()
and done only in case of primary process.
It is probably fixing some memory leaks for PMDs which were
not freeing all data.

Some doxygen comments were wrongly associated to the next field
because of syntax /** instead of /**<
Some other cleanups (like alignment) are done.

Primary and secondary processes share a per-device private data. With
current design it is not possible to have data per-device per-process.
This is required for handling properly the CPP interface inside the NFP
PMD with multiprocess support.
There is also at least another PMD driver, tap, with similar
requirements for per-process device data.

Library folder name and output library name are same except a few flaws
including librte_ether.
This library is network device abstraction layer, the name "ethdev" fits
better than "ether", and library & header files already named as ethdev.
Also there is a rte_ether.h in the net library which can cause confusion.
