mbuf: add new Rx checksum flags

Browse Source 
Following discussions in [1] and [2], introduce a new bit to
describe the Rx checksum status in mbuf.

Before this patch, only one flag was available:
  PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_BAD: L4 cksum of RX pkt. is not OK.

And same for L3:
  PKT_RX_IP_CKSUM_BAD: IP cksum of RX pkt. is not OK.

This had 2 issues:
- it was not possible to differentiate "checksum good" from
  "checksum unknown".
- it was not possible for a virtual driver to say "the checksum
  in packet may be wrong, but data integrity is valid".

This patch tries to solve this issue by having 4 states (2 bits)
for the IP and L4 Rx checksums. New values are:

 - PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_UNKNOWN: no information about the RX L4 checksum
   -> the application should verify the checksum by sw
 - PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_BAD: the L4 checksum in the packet is wrong
   -> the application can drop the packet without additional check
 - PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_GOOD: the L4 checksum in the packet is valid
   -> the application can accept the packet without verifying the
      checksum by sw
 - PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_NONE: the L4 checksum is not correct in the packet
   data, but the integrity of the L4 data is verified.
   -> the application can process the packet but must not verify the
      checksum by sw. It has to take care to recalculate the cksum
      if the packet is transmitted (either by sw or using tx offload)

  And same for L3 (replace L4 by IP in description above).

This commit tries to be compatible with existing applications that
only check the existing flag (CKSUM_BAD).

* Added a new function ``rte_raw_cksum_mbuf()`` to process the checksum of
data embedded in an mbuf chain.
* Added new Rx checksum flags in mbufs to describe more states: unknown,
good, bad, or not present (useful for virtual drivers). This modification
was done for IP and L4.
* **Added vhost-user dequeue zero copy support**
