[PATCH v2 0/1] eal: add CPU socket lookup API

[Randy L Tice <rtice@cisco.com>]

Some applications need to derive socket-specific EAL configuration
from OS CPU IDs before EAL lcore IDs are useful. One example is
building socket memory policy from the CPUs available to the process.

Existing public socket APIs do not cover this directly. rte_socket_id()
reports the calling thread socket, while rte_lcore_to_socket_id()
requires an EAL lcore ID and uses EAL lcore configuration.

Add experimental rte_cpu_socket_id() as a public API for mapping an OS
logical CPU ID to the NUMA socket containing that CPU. The
implementation reuses the existing per-OS EAL lookup internally, while
keeping the eal_cpu_socket_id() helper private to EAL.

v2:
- Mark rte_cpu_socket_id() experimental in the declaration, export
  macro, release note and commit message.
