This commit adds a new function rte_eal_cleanup(). The function serves as a hook to allow DPDK to release internal resources (e.g.: hugepage allocations). This function allows DPDK to become more like an ordinary library, where the library context itself can be initialized and cleaned up by the application. The rte_exit() and rte_panic() functions must be considered, particularly if they should call rte_eal_cleanup() to release any resources or not. This patch adds the cleanup to rte_exit(), but does not clean up on rte_panic(). The reason to not clean up on panicing is that the developer may wish to inspect the exact internal state of EAL and hugepages.
