Should the library be named event_dispatcher, or simply dispatcher?

Underscore in library isn't exactly aesthetically pleasing, and shorter 
is better. Also, the rte_event_* namespace is avoided altogether.

On the other hand "dispatcher" is a little too generic, and somewhat 
grandiose name, for a relatively simple thing. "event_dispatcher" makes 
the relation to eventdev obvious.
