net/tap: add remote netdevice traffic capture
By default, a tap netdevice is of no use when not fed by a separate

This patch implements this ability through a new optional "remote"

net/tap: add basic flow API patterns and actions
Supported flow rules are now mapped to TC rules on the tap netdevice.
The netlink message used for creating the TC rule is stored in struct
rte_flow. That way, by simply changing a metadata in it, we can require
for the rule deletion without further parsing.
Supported items:
- eth: src and dst (with variable masks), and eth_type (0xffff mask).
- vlan: vid, pcp, tpid, but not eid.
- ipv4/6: src and dst (with variable masks), and ip_proto (0xffff mask).
- udp/tcp: src and dst port (0xffff) mask.
Supported actions:
- DROP
- QUEUE
- PASSTHRU
It is generally not possible to provide a "last" item. However, if the
"last" item, once masked, is identical to the masked spec, then it is
supported.
Only IPv4/6 and MAC addresses can use a variable mask. All other
items need a full mask (exact match).
Support for VLAN requires kernel headers >= 4.9, checked using
auto-config.sh.

net/tap: add netlink back-end for flow API
Each kernel netdevice may have queueing disciplines set for it, which
determine how to handle the packet (mostly on egress). That's part of
the TC (Traffic Control) mechanism.
Through TC, it is possible to set filter rules that match specific
packets, and act according to what is in the rule. This is a perfect
candidate to implement the flow API for the tap PMD, as it has an
associated kernel netdevice automatically.
Each flow API rule will be translated into its TC counterpart.
To leverage TC, it is necessary to communicate with the kernel using
netlink. This patch introduces a library to help that communication.
Inside netlink.c, functions are generic for any netlink messaging.
Inside tcmsgs.c, functions are specific to deal with TC rules.

net/bonding: reduce slave starvation on Rx poll
When polling the bonded ports for RX packets the old driver would
always start with the first slave in the list. If the requested
number of packets is filled on the first port in a two port config
then the second port could be starved or have larger number of
missed packet errors.
The code attempts to start with a different slave each time RX poll
is done to help eliminate starvation of slave ports. The effect of
the previous code was much lower performance for two slaves in the
bond then just the one slave.
The performance drop was detected when the application can not poll
the rings of Rx packets fast enough and the packets per second for
two or more ports was at the threshold throughput of the application.
At this threshold the slaves would see very little or no drops in
the case of one slave. Then enable the second slave you would see
a large drop rate on the two slave bond and reduction in throughput.
