DPDK assumes that users only want AF_XDP socket (XSK) into zero copy
mode when the kernel supports it. However, sometimes kernel driver
doesn't support it well and copy mode is more stable and preferred.

This patch allows using devarg "-a xx:xx.x,force_copy=1" to force the
AF_XDP socket into copy mode.
