mem: add dirty malloc element support
EAL malloc layer assumed all free elements content is filled with zeros ("clean"), as opposed to uninitialized ("dirty"). This assumption was ensured in two ways: 1. EAL memalloc layer always returned clean memory. 2. Freed memory was cleared before returning into the heap.
Clearing the memory can be as slow as around 14 GiB/s. To save doing so, memalloc layer is allowed to return dirty memory. Such segments being marked with RTE_MEMSEG_FLAG_DIRTY. The allocator tracks elements that contain dirty memory using the new flag in the element header. When clean memory is requested via rte_zmalloc*() and the suitable element is dirty, it is cleared on allocation. When memory is deallocated, the freed element is joined with adjacent free elements, and the dirty flag is updated:
a) If the joint element contains dirty parts, it is dirty:
dirty + freed + dirty = dirty => no need to clean freed + dirty = dirty the freed memory
Dirty parts may be large (e.g. initial allocation), so clearing them could create unpredictable slowdown.
b) If the only dirty part of the joint element is the freed memory, the joint element can be made clean:
clean + freed + clean = clean => freed memory clean + freed = clean must be cleared freed + clean = clean freed = clean
This logic naturally reproduces the old behavior and always applies in modes when EAL memalloc layer returns only clean segments.
As a result, memory is either cleared on free, as before, or it will be cleared on allocation if need be, but never twice.

mem: instrument allocator for ASan
This patch adds necessary hooks in the memory allocator for ASan.
This feature is currently available in DPDK only on Linux x86_64. If other OS/architectures want to support it, ASAN_SHADOW_OFFSET must be defined and RTE_MALLOC_ASAN must be set accordingly in meson.

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'
