Fix the mbuf offload flags namespace by adding an RTE_ prefix to the
name. The old flags remain usable, but a deprecation warning is issued
at compilation.

m->nb_seg must be reset on mbuf free whatever the value of m->next,
because it can happen that m->nb_seg is != 1. For instance in this
case:
m1 = rte_pktmbuf_alloc(mp);
rte_pktmbuf_append(m1, 500);
m2 = rte_pktmbuf_alloc(mp);
rte_pktmbuf_append(m2, 500);
rte_pktmbuf_chain(m1, m2);
m0 = rte_pktmbuf_alloc(mp);
rte_pktmbuf_append(m0, 500);
rte_pktmbuf_chain(m0, m1);
As rte_pktmbuf_chain() does not reset nb_seg in the initial m1
segment (this is not required), after this code the mbuf chain
have 3 segments:
- m0: next=m1, nb_seg=3
- m1: next=m2, nb_seg=2
- m2: next=NULL, nb_seg=1
Then split this chain between m1 and m2, it would result in 2 packets:
- first packet
- m0: next=m1, nb_seg=2
- m1: next=NULL, nb_seg=2
- second packet
- m2: next=NULL, nb_seg=1
Freeing the first packet will not restore nb_seg=1 in the second
segment. This is an issue because it is expected that mbufs stored
in pool have their nb_seg field set to 1.

Clarify that the mempool private initializer and object initializer used
for packet pools require that the mempool private size is large enough.
Also add an assert (only enabled when -DRTE_ENABLE_ASSERT is passed) to
check this constraint.

There is no reason for the DPDK libraries to all have 'librte_' prefix on
the directory names. This prefix makes the directory names longer and also
makes it awkward to add features referring to individual libraries in the
build - should the lib names be specified with or without the prefix.
Therefore, we can just remove the library prefix and use the library's
unique name as the directory name, i.e. 'eal' rather than 'librte_eal'
