[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6 2/2] mbuf: implement generic format for sched field

[Reshma Pattan <reshma.pattan@intel.com>]

This patch implements the changes proposed in the deprecation
notes [1][2].

librte_mbuf changes:
The mbuf::hash::sched field is updated to support generic
definition in line with the ethdev TM and MTR APIs. The new generic
format contains: queue ID, traffic class, color.

Added public APIs to set and get these new fields to and from mbuf.

librte_sched changes:
In addtion, following API functions of the sched library have
been modified with an additional parameter of type struct
rte_sched_port to accommodate the changes made to mbuf sched field.
(i)rte_sched_port_pkt_write()
(ii) rte_sched_port_pkt_read_tree_path()

librte_pipeline, qos_sched UT, qos_sched app are updated
to make use of new changes.

Also mbuf::hash::txadapter has been added for eventdev txq,
rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_txq_set and rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_txq_get()
are updated to use uses mbuf::hash::txadapter.txq.

doc:
Release notes updated.
Removed deprecation notice for mbuf::hash::sched and sched API.

v6: added scheduler comment

v5:
Removed librte_meter from librte_mbuf dependency list.
Changed the mbuf set/get functions to use uint8_t for color.

v4: converted mbuf::hash::sched as instantiation of rte_mbuf_sched.

v3: addressed review comments given in the below link.
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/48587/
Updated library ABI versioning in meson build.

-* mbuf: The opaque ``mbuf->hash.sched`` field will be updated to support generic

-  is defined in librte_sched in a non-generic way. The new generic format
-  will contain: queue ID, traffic class, color. Field size will not change.

-* sched: Some API functions will change prototype due to the above

-  and ``rte_sched_port_pkt_read()`` will likely have an additional parameter

-
 * mbuf: the macro ``RTE_MBUF_INDIRECT()`` will be removed in v18.08 or later and
   replaced with ``RTE_MBUF_CLONED()`` which is already added in v18.05. As
