[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: update the snow3g library information

A new process to request the libsso library required by the SNOW3G PMD
has been put in place, through a website, replacing the previous email method.
This commit updates the SNOW3G documentation, to reflect this change.

Since the library does not support newer gcc versions, the documentation
also contains a patch to make the library work with gcc > 5.0.
