Currently eal only tries to find shared lib by looking for .so files, but on Fedora, CentOS and RHEL the .so file is not installed by dpdk package, but it's only installed by dpdk-devel package, since .so files should not be necessary in order to run a program [1].
This series fix that by checking for .so.ABI_VERSION that should be available on any linux distribution.
