This patchset introduce the rte_security library in DPDK.
This also includes the sample implementation of drivers and
changes in ipsec gateway application to demonstrate its usage.


rte_security library is implemented on the idea proposed earlier [1],[2],[3]
to support IPsec Inline and look aside crypto offload. Though
the current focus is only on IPsec protocol, but the library is
not limited to IPsec, it can be extended to other security
protocols e.g. MACSEC, PDCP or DTLS.

In this library, crypto/ethernet devices can register itself to
the security library to support security offload.

The library support 3 modes of operation
1. full protocol offload using crypto devices.
   (RTE_SECURITY_ACTION_TYPE_LOOKASIDE_PROTOCOL)
2. inline ipsec using ethernet devices to perform crypto operations
   (RTE_SECURITY_ACTION_TYPE_INLINE_CRYPTO)
3. full protocol offload using ethernet devices.
   (RTE_SECURITY_ACTION_TYPE_INLINE_PROTOCOL)

The details for each mode is documented in the patchset in
doc/guides/prog_guide/rte_security.rst

The modification in the application ipsec-secgw is also doocumented in
doc/guides/sample_app_ug/ipsec_secgw.rst

This patchset is also available at:
git://dpdk.org/draft/dpdk-draft-ipsec
branch: integration

To Do:
1. update documentation for rte_flow
2. unregister device to security library is incomplete
3. test application support

Future enhancements:
1. for full protocol offload - error handling and notification cases
2. add more security protocols
