The current aarch64 version of VPP package distro in cloud repository
(https://packagecloud.io/fdio/master/ubuntu), is built on a ThunderX server,
using some arch-specific options, for example, 128Byte cache line size,
T=arm64-thunderx-linuxapp-gcc, RTE_MACHINE=thunderx
The patch is trying to build package distro with aarch64 generic features,
for both binary type targets, e.g., build/build-release, and package type
targets, e.g., pkg-deb/pkg-rpm, with the generic options, e.g.,
128Byte cache line size, T=arm64-armv8a-linuxapp-gcc, RTE_MACHINE=armv8a
If end users want to build arch specific optimized image,
TARGET_PLATFORM variable could be used, as below example,
$ make build-release/pkg-deb TARGET_PLATFORM=thunderx

Upstream DPDK changed the names of the options to use dlopen()
with libibverbs and libmlx[45] from RTE_LIBRTE_MLX[45]_DLOPEN_DEPS
to RTE_IBVERBS_LINK_DLOPEN (handles both mlx4 and mlx5).
VPP's build option to enable this configuration when building DPDK
no longer worked starting when VPP moved to DPDK 19.02. Update VPP's
build options to enable the correct option name.

There are issues with VPP finding and linking the mlx5 shared glue
library which was built by default if mlx5 was enabled.
Runtime Errors this patch fixes:
net_mlx5: cannot load glue library: librte_pmd_mlx5_glue.so.18.05.0:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
net_mlx5: cannot initialize PMD due to missing run-time dependency on
rdma-core libraries (libibverbs, libmlx5)
This patch introduces additional config parameter to disable glue
library building and instead statically link ibverbs and mlx5
libraries to the PMD and dpdk_plugin.

We need to have new tenants in the development package.
This is first of series of patches which will allow us to have multiple
external libs and tools packaged for developer's convenience.
