[1/2] metrics: new API to deinitialise metrics library
Checks
Commit Message
Once the library usage is over, it must be deinitialized which
will free the shared memory reserved during initialization.
Fixes: observed an issue while running 'metrics_autotest'
continuously without quiting. For the first run 'metrics_autotest'
passes all test cases but second run onwards first test case
fails because metrics library is already initialized during
first run.

Comments
This patchset is in that grey area between new feature and bugfix so it
might need to be CC'd to stable@dpdk.org
