[v2,00/11] rework thread management

  The main effect of this patch series is to
remove calls to pthread functions except for pthread_cancel and locks.

The function rte_thread_create_control() does not take thread attributes
settings anymore as it looks a useless complication of the API.
Then the rte_thread API is made stable,
so we can remove the old deprecated functions
rte_thread_setname() and rte_ctrl_thread_create().

Some new internal functions are added in rte_thread to make sure
all internal thread names are prefixed with "dpdk-".

Few other cleanups are done.

Future work about pthread portability are about:
  - cancel
  - mutex

---

v2 changes:
    - replace (|_) with _? in checkpatch
    - simplify thread name size doc
    - build time check of internal thread name size
    - clean control thread params struct
