Applications that display or export DPDK logging configuration can query numeric log levels, but have no direct way to retrieve the corresponding level and component names. They must currently duplicate the level mapping and cannot safely query a registered component name.
Add experimental APIs to return the canonical name for a log level and the registered name for a log type. The returned strings are const and remain owned by DPDK. Unit tests cover known and unknown levels and types, and the new APIs are documented in the programmer guide and release notes. The original downstream implementation was authored by Walt Robinson.
