In Windows generally, not limited to MSVC.

It just doesn't.
Fortunately, symbol versioning is not the approach used in DPDK by default.
For example, there are currently no versioned symbols AFAICT.
The preferred approach is:
1) to keep new functions experimental (there are precise rules for how long)
2) to consider possible future extensions when defining new APIs
