From: Tyler Retzlaff <roret...@linux.microsoft.com>

Add rte_control_thread_create API as a replacement for
rte_ctrl_thread_create to allow deprecation of the use of platform
specific types in DPDK public API.

Duplicate the rte_ctrl_thread_create test adapted to use
rte_control_thread create to keep both APIs under test until
rte_ctrl_thread_create is removed.
