acinclude: Remove default library for DPDK.
The default DPDK library used before this patch in case pkg-config
fails to find libdpdk is only valid for make based DPDK builds.
Hence remove them.
As a consequence, now this error message [1] is thrown when pkg-config
cannot find libdpdk instead of proceeding to check for a faulty
pkg-config and reporting incorrect error message [2].
Also, update the documentation to export PKG_CONFIG_PATH since on some
systems, the default install path for DPDK libraries is not present in
the default search path of pkg-config.
Ex: for Fedora 32 default pkg-config search path:
/usr/lib64/pkgconfig:/usr/share/pkgconfig
while by default Meson installs DPDK libraries at:
/usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig
[1] Package libdpdk was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libdpdk.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'libdpdk', required by 'virtual:world', not found
[2] checking for DPDK... no
checking for faulty pkg-config version... yes
configure: error: Please upgrade pkg-config
Also, update the build documentation for AVX512 optimization.
Fixes: 252e1e576443 ("dpdk: Update to use DPDK v20.11.")
