Zbigniew Bodek 169ca3db55 crypto/armv8: add PMD optimized for ARMv8 processors
This patch introduces crypto poll mode driver
using ARMv8 cryptographic extensions.
CPU compatibility with this driver is detected in
run-time and virtual crypto device will not be
created if CPU doesn't provide:
AES, SHA1, SHA2 and NEON.

This PMD is optimized to provide performance boost
for chained crypto operations processing,
such as encryption + HMAC generation,
decryption + HMAC validation. In particular,
cipher only or hash only operations are
not provided.

The driver currently supports AES-128-CBC
in combination with: SHA256 HMAC and SHA1 HMAC
and relies on the external armv8_crypto library:
https://github.com/caviumnetworks/armv8_crypto

Build ARMv8 crypto PMD if compiling for ARM64
and CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_ARMV8_CRYPTO option
is enable in the configuration file.
ARMV8_CRYPTO_LIB_PATH environment variable will
point to the appropriate library directory.
