build: fix build on FreeBSD with Meson 0.61.1

When building with Meson 0.61.1 on FreeBSD some archives become
corrupted. This can be avoided by using 'llvm-ar' instead of 'ar'.

buildtools/chkincs: check missing C++ guards

Simply compiling a C header with a C++ compiler is not enough to flag
missing 'extern "C"' guards. To catch missing guards, we can just use a
simple grep for the 'extern "C"' part, and error out if any files have a
miss.

buildtools/chkincs: check SDK headers for C++ compatibility

With a one-line change to the lib meson.build file we can add the SDK
headers to the list of files to be checked using the chkincs binary.
Unfortunately, many of those SDK header depend upon headers in the PCI
and vdev bus drivers, so we need to update chkincs build to ensure those
dependencies are added. We also need to allow internal APIs to be
present in these SDK headers.

buildtools/chkincs: remove unnecessary linkage

The chkincs binary does not actually call any functions in either libs
or drivers, so we can simplify the linkage of it to just using shared
linkage of the libraries (via meson dependencies). This means a slightly
faster link time as well as making the chkincs binary much, much
smaller.

build: fix warnings when running external commands

Meson 0.61.1 is giving warnings that the calls to run_command do not
always explicitly specify if the result is to be checked or not, i.e.
there is a missing "check" parameter. This is because the default
behaviour without the parameter is due to change in the future.

We can fix these warnings by explicitly adding into each call whether
the result should be checked by meson or not. This patch therefore
adds in "check: false" to each run_command call where the result is
being checked by the DPDK meson.build code afterwards, and adds in
"check: true" to any calls where the result is currently unchecked.

buildtools: make AVX512 check portable

buildtools/binutils-avx512-check.sh was Unix-only
and could not be used in cross builds:
1) written in shell;
2) used the assembler binary that may be missing,
e.g. when building on Windows with LLVM;
3) located the assembler as ${AS:-as} and referenced objdump,
but those binaries may be overridden via --cross-file.

Rewrite the script in Python.
Use the C compiler for the check.
Locate objdump and the C compiler using Meson.
