> Add mldev API specification to standardize and use the machine learning
> device and inference operations in vendor neutral way.
> 
> Following operations are abstracted through APIs
> 
> - ML device capability probe
> - ML device configuration
> - ML device queue pair configuration
> - ML device state management
> - ML device stat/xstat operations
> - ML model load/unload/start/stop operations
> - ML model information probe
> - ML IO operations to find size for input and output buffers
> - ML quantize and dequantize operations
> - ML ops pool creation and free operations
> - ML device enqueue/dequeue fastpath interference operations
> 
> Also added programming guide.
