As approved by DPDK technical board on 2021-03-24 NTB and IOAT raw driver's example application will be moved to example/drivers/raw/ to avoid PMD specific example applicationexamples with a s :)quoted
to show up in examples directory.

We could expect some driver example in such a path, but it is just an use of the driver. Any other idea of naming?
Like Linux kernel, Skelton drivers can be added in drivers/ itself, like the one existing (drivers/event/skeleton/). If there are no better suggestions, examples/drivers/raw/.. looks good to me.
