Update doc/api/doxy-api-index.md and hook to documenion.

Does not look like this memory is NOT freed anywhere.

No need to expose this structure. Move to eal_private.h

No need to expose this structure. Move to eal_private.h

Add Doxygen comment.

Should we change to rte_init_register()? add an enum to specify where to
call this RTE_INIT_PRE, RTE_INIT_POST to take care of the future needs.
Just thought of bringing this point to make sure we can use this
scheme for another use case IF ANY.

No need to expose this function in public API. Move to eal_private.h.
Please start the internal functions with eal_(dont use rte_ for
internal functions)
