Rename the library to reflect that it's more a generic AAL driver than
specifically for AAL. To this end, rename some documentation.
As of this commit, the options are still called nrLDPC_coding_t2. The
next commit will correct this.

Build and run OAI physims with DPDK version 22.11 for testing with the latest
T2 firmware release. Environment variables PKG_CONFIG_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH
are set to point to the custom installation path of DPDK v22.11.
- Introduce "Run_Physim" function for running ldpctest (with CUDA) and
nr_dlsim/nr_ulsim (with T2) in RAN-gNB-N300-Timing-Phytest-LDPC test
pipeline.
- Create "cls_analysis.py" and introduce "analyze_physim" for
log analysis of physim tests.
- Define patterns to be searched in the physim logs.
- Extract and print information about total gNB RX/TX PHY processing time
from nr_ulsim/nr_dlsim logs.
- Remove "cls_physim.py" as it is not used anymore, cleanup "main.py".
Set a maximum SNR value using the "-S" option to ensure that nr_dlsim
or nr_ulsim is executed only for a given SNR. This approach allows us
to verify the success of the encoding/decoding process at the specified
SNR. Check if the test succeeds is not yet implemented (currently we
only retrieve an information about encoding/decoding processing time).
To be implemented in the separate MR.
Always execute all the nr_dlsim/nr_ulsim tests even if one of them
fails. Each test takes around 5s, so we can execute them all to get
results for all the test scenarios.
- Introduced command line and configuration options to set up PCI address, CPU cores used by DPDK, and DPDK file prefix for T2 offload.
- Made the dpdk_dev parameter (for setting the PCI address of the T2) mandatory.
- Configure dpdk_dev in the CI test cases.
