build: remove deprecated Meson functions

Starting in meson 0.56, the functions meson.source_root() and
meson.build_root() are deprecated and to be replaced by the [more
descriptive] functions: project_source_root()/global_source_root() and
project_build_root()/global_build_root(). Unfortunately, these new
replacement functions were only added in 0.56 release too, so to use
them we would need version checks for old/new functions to remove the
deprecation warnings.

However, the functions "current_build_dir()" and "current_source_dir()"
remain unaffected by all this, so we can bypass the versioning problem,
by saving off these values to "dpdk_source_root" and "dpdk_build_root"
in the top-level meson.build file

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.

As suse version numbering is inconsistent to determine Linux kernel

lib: remove librte_ prefix from directory names

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'

build: support KNI cross-compilation

The KNI linux module is using a custom target for building, which
doesn't take into account any cross compilation arguments. The arguments
in question are ARCH, CROSS_COMPILE (for gcc, clang) and CC, LD (for
clang). Get those from the cross file and pass them to the custom
target.

The user supplied path may not contain the 'build' directory, such as
when using cross-compiled headers, so only append that in the default
case (when no path is supplied in native builds) and use the unmodified
path from the user otherwise. Also modify the install path accordingly.

kni: remove ethtool support

Current design requires kernel drivers and they need to be probed by
Linux up to some level so that they can be usable by DPDK for ethtool
support, this requires maintaining the Linux drivers in DPDK.

Also ethtool support is limited and hard, if not impossible, to expand
to other PMDs.

Since KNI ethtool support is not used commonly, if not used at all,
removing the support for the sake of simplicity and maintenance.
