pflock: add phase-fair reader writer locks

This is a new type of reader-writer lock that provides better fairness
guarantees which better suited for typical DPDK applications.
A pflock has two ticket pools, one for readers and one
for writers.

Phase-fair reader writer locks ensure that neither reader nor writer will
be starved.
Neither reader or writer are preferred, they execute in alternating
phases.
All operations of the same type (reader or writer) that acquire the lock
are handled in FIFO order.
Write operations are exclusive, and multiple read operations can be run
together (until a write arrives).

A similar implementation is in Concurrency Kit package in FreeBSD.
For more information see:
"Reader-Writer Synchronization for Shared-Memory Multiprocessor
Real-Time Systems",

raw/ifpga: add FPGA RSU APIs

RSU (Remote System Update) depends on secure manager which may be
different on various implementations, so a new secure manager device
is implemented for adapting such difference.
There are five APIs added:
1. rte_pmd_ifpga_get_dev_id() get raw device ID of ifpga device from PCI
address like 'Domain:Bus:Dev.Func'.
2. rte_pmd_ifpga_update_flash() update flash with specific image file.
3. rte_pmd_ifpga_stop_update() abort flash update process.
4. rte_pmd_ifpga_reboot_try() check current ifpga status and change it
to reboot status if it is idle.
5. rte_pmd_ifpga_reload() trigger full reconfiguration of ifpga device.

net/iavf: support flex desc metadata extraction

Enable metadata extraction for flexible descriptors in AVF, that would
allow network function directly get metadata without additional parsing
which would reduce the CPU cost for VFs. The enabling metadata
extractions involve the metadata of VLAN/IPv4/IPv6/IPv6-FLOW/TCP/MPLS
flexible descriptors, and the VF could negotiate the capability of
the flexible descriptor with PF and correspondingly configure the
specific offload at receiving queues.
