[PATCH v4] baseband/turbo_sw: Remove flexran_sdk meson option

[Nicolas Chautru]

v4: doc update and typo in commit msg
v3: fix mix of space and tabs in meson files
v2: typo in documentation

Hi Thomas,
This is change you requested earlier this year. This is targeting 22.11.
Basically we no longer pass a specific option but rely on pkgconfig.
There is small change to generate the .pc files that Intel will make available by end of year. Still the related change in DPDK is available now.

Thanks
Nic

[PATCH v4] baseband/turbo_sw: remove Flexran SDK meson option

[Nicolas Chautru]

The related dependency to build the PMD based on the
SDK libraries is now enabled through pkgconfig.

This patch looks OK.
Thank you for switching to pkgconfig.
