[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eventdev: remove experimental label

[Jerin Jacob]

The eventdev API was introduced in DPDK 17.05 release.
Since then it
- has been reviewed and iterated for 17.08, 17.11 releases
- three drivers were implemented using the API.
- introduced another subsystem like service core and ethdev-eventdev Rx
adapter APIs to abstract the difference between HW and SW
eventdev implementations in a transparent way.
- had extensive use by the app/test-eventdev/ and
examples/eventdev_pipeline_sw_pmd/

I believe the API is now stable and the EXPERIMENTAL label
should be removed.

There are two more outstanding eventdev API changes. Please find below.
Please express if you have any concern in changing those APIs. I would         
like to fix this API issue and remove experimental tag in v17.11,
if we all agree.
