doc: reorganize prog guide

Create categories in the index of the programmer's guide,
sort chapters and rewrite some titles for consistency.

Subdirectories are created for ethdev and eventdev
for grouping the files together.

Useless link anchors at the beginning of files are removed,
the corresponding :ref: are replaced with :doc: links.

metrics: add function to deinitialise library

Once the library usage is over, it must be deinitialized which
will free the shared memory reserved during initialization.

Observed an issue while running 'metrics_autotest' continuously
without quiting. For the first run 'metrics_autotest' passes
all test cases but second run onwards first test case fails
because metrics library is already initialized during first run.

latency: added new library for latency stats

Add a library designed to calculate latency statistics and report them
to the application when queried. The library measures minimum, average and
maximum latencies, and jitter in nano seconds. The current implementation
supports global latency stats, i.e. per application stats.

metrics: add information metrics library

This patch adds a new information metrics library. This Metrics
library implements a mechanism by which producers can publish
numeric information for later querying by consumers. Metrics
themselves are statistics that are not generated by PMDs, and
hence are not reported via ethdev extended statistics.

Metric information is populated using a push model, where
producers update the values contained within the metric
library by calling an update function on the relevant metrics.
Consumers receive metric information by querying the central
metric data, which is held in shared memory.
