[PATCH v5 00/54] doc: programmers guide corrections

[Stephen Hemminger]

This is a revision of earlier corrections to the programmers guide.
At this point, it is a collaborative work of myself (Stephen), the
technical writer (Nandini) and AI (Claude).

This patch series contains 54 patches that improves the
quality and clarity of DPDK programmer guide documentation. The changes
address grammar errors, typos, awkward phrasing, and consistency issues
across multiple documentation files.

The improvements include:

* Grammar corrections (subject-verb agreement, verb tenses, article usage)
* Typo fixes (field names, function names, general spelling)
* Clarity improvements (rephrasing awkward or unclear sentences)
* Consistency improvements (terminology, formatting)
* Minor whitespace and formatting corrections

Files affected include documentation for:
- argparse library
- service cores
- vhost library
- toeplitz hash
- writing efficient code
- Various other programmer guides
