This patchset adds ABI version testing to the app/test unit test framework,
addressing two issues previously raised during ML conversations on ABI
stability;

1. How do we unit test still supported previous ABI versions?
2. How to we unit test inline functions from still supported previous ABI
versions?

Starting with rte_lpm, I did the following:-

* I reproduced mostly unmodified unit tests for the v2.0 ABI, taken from DPDK
  2.2 and 17.02.
* I reproduced the rte_lpm interface header from v2.0, including the inline
  functions and remapping symbols to their appropriate versions.
* I added support for multiple abi versions to the app/test unit test framework
  to allow users to switch between abi versions (set_abi_version), without
  further polluting the already long list of unit tests available in app/test.

The intention here is that in future as developers need to deprecate APIs, the
associated unit tests may move into the ABI version testing mechanism of the
app/test instead of being replaced by the latest set of unit tests as would be
the case today.

v2:

* Added LPM IPv6 test cases for the v2.0 ABI.
* Fixed a number of checkpatch errors, stop short of substantially reworking
  the test code from the v2.0 ABI. 
* Removed duplicating test cases published in the original v1 patch.
