[PATCH 5/5] eal: deprecate rte thread setname API

[Tyler Retzlaff]

Notify deprecation of rte_thread_setname API, it is being removed as it
exposes platform-specific thread details. The functionality it provided
is now implicitly provided via the rte_lcore_set_name API if the
underlying platform supports it.
