use C linkage where appropriate in headers

Assure that 'extern "C" { /../ }' do not cover files included from a
particular header file, and address minor issues resulting from this
change of order.

Dealing with C++ should delegate to the individual include file level,
rather than being imposed by the user of that file. For example,
forcing C linkage prevents __Generic macros being replaced with
overloaded static inline functions in C++ translation units.

Eliminate 'extern "C"' from files which do not declare any symbols
(e.g., only macros or struct types).

On the other hand, the headers check is too naive in assuming that all
headers must contain a 'extern "C"'. Such a check was added in commit
1ee492bdc4ff ("buildtools/chkincs: check missing C++ guards").
Since this current change results in many headers not containing such
a token, remove the check for 'extern "C"' until we have a better
implementation.

lib: replace logging helpers

This is a preparation step before the next change.

Many libraries have their own logging helpers that do not add a newline
in their format string.
Some previous changes fixed places where some of those helpers are
called without a trailing newline.
Using RTE_LOG_LINE in the existing helpers will ensure we don't
introduce new issues in the future.

The problem is that if we simply convert to the RTE_LOG_LINE helper,
a future fix may introduce a regression since the logging helper
change won't be backported.

To address this concern, rename existing helpers: backporting a call to
them will trigger some conflict or build issue in LTS branches.

Note:
- bpf and vhost that still has some debug multilines messages, a direct
call to RTE_LOG/RTE_LOG_DP is used: this will make it easier to notice
such special cases,
- about previously publicly exposed logging helpers, when such helper is
not publicly used (iow in public inline API), it is removed from the
public API (this is the case for the member library),

cleanup compat header inclusions

With symbols going though experimental/stable stages, we accumulated
a lot of discrepancies about inclusion of the rte_compat.h header.

Some headers are including it where unneeded, while others rely on
implicit inclusion.

Fix unneeded inclusions:
$ git grep -l include..rte_compat.h |
xargs grep -LE '__rte_(internal|experimental)' |
xargs sed -i -e '/#include..rte_compat.h/d'

Fix missing inclusion, by inserting rte_compat.h before the first
inclusion of a DPDK header:
$ git grep -lE '__rte_(internal|experimental)' |
xargs grep -L include..rte_compat.h |
xargs sed -i -e \
'0,/#include..\(rte_\|.*pmd.h.$\)/{
s/\(#include..\(rte_\|.*pmd.h.$\)\)/#include <rte_compat.h>\n\1/
}'

Fix missing inclusion, by inserting rte_compat.h after the last
inclusion of a non DPDK header:
$ for file in $(git grep -lE '__rte_(internal|experimental)' |
xargs grep -L include..rte_compat.h); do
tac $file > $file.$$
sed -i -e \
'0,/#include../{
s/\(#include..*$\)/#include <rte_compat.h>\n\n\1/
}' $file.$$
tac $file.$$ > $file
rm $file.$$
done

Fix missing inclusion, by inserting rte_compat.h after the header guard:
$ git grep -lE '__rte_(internal|experimental)' |
xargs grep -L include..rte_compat.h |
xargs sed -i -e \
'0,/#define/{
s/\(#define .*$\)/\1\n\n#include <rte_compat.h>/
}'

And finally, exclude rte_compat.h itself.
$ git checkout lib/eal/include/rte_compat.h

At the end of all this, we have a clean tree:
$ git grep -lE '__rte_(internal|experimental)' |
xargs grep -L include..rte_compat.h

regexdev: fix section attribute of symbols

The functions used by the drivers must be internal,
while the function and variables used in inline functions
must be experimental.

These are the changes done in the shared library:
- DF .text Base rte_regexdev_get_device_by_name
+ DF .text INTERNAL rte_regexdev_get_device_by_name
- DF .text Base rte_regexdev_register
+ DF .text INTERNAL rte_regexdev_register
- DF .text Base rte_regexdev_unregister
+ DF .text INTERNAL rte_regexdev_unregister
- DF .text Base rte_regexdev_is_valid_dev
+ DF .text EXPERIMENTAL rte_regexdev_is_valid_dev
- DO .bss Base rte_regex_devices
+ DO .bss EXPERIMENTAL rte_regex_devices
- DO .bss Base rte_regexdev_logtype
+ DO .bss EXPERIMENTAL rte_regexdev_logtype

Because these symbols were exported in the default section in DPDK 21.11,
any change in these functions would be seen as incompatible
by the ABI compatibility check.
An exception rule is added for this experimental library,
so the ABI check will skip it until the next ABI version.

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'
