[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal/windows: refine public interface

The goal of rte_os.h is to mitigate OS differences for EAL users.
In Windows EAL, rte_os.h did excessive things:

1. It included platform SDK headers (windows.h, etc). Those files are
   huge, require specific inclusion order, and are generally unused by
   the code including rte_os.h. Declarations from platform SDK may
   break otherwise platform-independent code, e.g. min, max, ERROR.

2. It included pthread.h, which is clearly not always required.

3. It defined functions private to Windows EAL.

Reorganize Windows EAL includes in the following way:

1. Create rte_windows.h to properly import Windows-specific facilities.
   Primary users are bus drivers, tests, and external applications.

2. Remove platform SDK includes from rte_os.h to make it portable.
   Copy necessary definitions to avoid including those headers.

3. Remove pthread.h include from rte_os.h.

4. Move declarations private to Windows EAL into eal_windows.h.

Fixes: 428eb983 ("eal: add OS specific header file")
