Add a simple API to allow getting the monitor conditions for
power-optimized monitoring of the RX queues from the PMD, as well as
release notes information.

The implementation of get_monitor_addr will have much in common with
the rx_descriptor_status API in struct rte_eth_dev, including the property
that it will likely not make sense for it to be called concurrently with
rx_pkt_burst on a given queue. Might it make more sense to have this
API in struct rte_eth_dev instead of struct eth_dev_ops?


I don't have an opinion on this as this code isn't really my area of expertise. I'm fine with wherever the community thinks this code should be. Any other opinions?
