[Marcin Kerlin <marcinx.kerlin@intel.com>]

This patch ensure not overwrite device data in the multiprocess application.

1)Changes in the library introduces continuity in device data rte_eth_dev_data[]
common for to all processes. Functionality detach cleans data of detachable 
device and leaves space for other devices or for the next run app.

2)Changes in application testpmd allow secondary process to attach the mempool
created by primary process rather than create new and in the case of quit or
force quit to free devices of this process from shared array rte_eth_dev_data[].
