v4
1) RCU reclamation APIs changed to provide lot more flexibility
   a) The rte_rcu_qsbr_dq_enqueue and rte_rcu_qsbr_dq_reclaim APIs
      can be configured to be MT safe
   b) The auto reclamation limit and how much to reclaim
      can be configured
   c) rte_rcu_qsbr_dq_reclaim API returns the number of resources
      reclaimed and the number of pending resources on the defer
      queue
   d) rte_rcu_qsbr_dq_reclaim API takes maximum number of resources
      to reclaim as a parameter
2) Multiple minor fixes
   a) Private header file and test function names changed to remove 'rte_'
   b) Compilation for shared library
   c) Split the test cases into a separate commit
   d) Uses rte_ring_xxx_elem APIs to support flexible ring element size

v3
1) Separated from the original series
   (https://patches.dpdk.org/cover/58811/)
2) Added reclamation APIs and test cases (Stephen, Yipeng)

Depends on: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/cover/67696/. However it needed
changes (will send the comments). So, cannot be tested right now.
But, please look at the changes in V4.

This is not a new patch. This patch set is separated from the LPM
changes as the size of the changes in RCU library has grown due
to comments from community. These APIs will help reduce the changes
in LPM and hash libraries that are getting integrated with RCU
library.

This adds 4 new APIs to RCU library to create a defer queue, enqueue
deleted resources, reclaim resources and delete the defer queue.

The rationale for the APIs is documented in 3/4.

The patches to LPM and HASH libraries to integrate RCU will depend on
this patch.
