Allow transmit packet bufring in software to be disabled.

- Add new sysctl node to control the transmit packet bufring.

- Add optimised version of the transmit routine which output packets
directly to the DMA ring instead of using bufring in case the transmit
lock is congested. This can reduce the number of taskswitches which in
turn influence the overall system CPU usage, depending on the
workload.

- Add " TX" suffix to debug name for transmit mutexes to silence some
witness warnings about aquiring duplicate locks having same name.
