The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.
The patch only changes the docs and not the code as the -c option will continue to exist unless it is removed in the future. The -c option should be kept to maintain backward compatibility.

doc: refactor figure numbers into references
This change adds automatic figure references to the docs. The figure numbers in the generated Html and PDF docs are now automatically numbered based on section.
Requires Sphinx >= 1.3.1.
The patch makes the following changes.
* Changes image:: tag to figure:: and moves image caption to the figure.
* Adds captions to figures that didn't previously have any.
* Un-templates the |image-name| substitution definitions into explicit figure:: tags. They weren't used more than once anyway and Sphinx doesn't support them for figure.
* Adds a target to each image that didn't previously have one so that they can be cross-referenced.
* Renamed existing image target to match the image name for consistency.
* Replaces the Figures lists with automatic :numref: :ref: entries to generate automatic numbering and captions.
* Replaces "Figure" references with automatic :numref: references.
