Currently, there is no mechanism that allows the pipeline ports (in/out)
and table action handlers to override the default forwarding decision
(as previously configured per input port or in the table entry). The port
(in/out) and table action handler prototypes have been changed to allow
pipeline action handlers (port in/out, table) to remove the selected
packets from the further pipeline processing and to take full ownership
for these packets. This feature will be helpful to implement functions
such as exception handling (e.g. TTL =0), load balancing etc.

If mbuf allocation failed for whatever reason, we would get a NULL
pointer exception in test_table_acl.c:test_pipeline_single_filter test
case.
We fix this by causing an early break out of the application loop. If we
quit the test immediately we would leak any existing allocated mbufs,
but by breaking instead, we allow the test to continue and clean up the
mbufs already in the pipeline, while still having a test failure as the
mbuf counts should not match.

The mbuf structure already contains a pointer to the beginning of the
buffer (m->buf_addr). It is not needed to use 8 bytes again to store
another pointer to the beginning of the data.
Using a 16 bits unsigned integer is enough as we know that a mbuf is
never longer than 64KB. We gain 6 bytes in the structure thanks to
this modification.

* Updated to apply to latest on mainline.
* Disabled vector PMD in config as it relies heavily on the mbuf layout
This will be re-enabled in a subsequent commit once vPMD has been
reworked to take account of mbuf changes.

The rte_pktmbuf structure was initially included in the rte_mbuf
structure. This was needed when there was 2 types of mbuf (ctrl and
packet). As the control mbuf has been removed, we can merge the
rte_pktmbuf into the rte_mbuf structure.
Advantages of doing this:
- the access to mbuf fields is easier (ex: m->data instead of m->pkt.data)
- make the structure more consistent: for instance, there was no reason
to have the ol_flags field in rte_mbuf
- it will allow a deeper reorganization of the rte_mbuf structure in the
next commits, allowing to gain several bytes in it

Avoid building tests if their counterparts are not selected in config.
This has the nice side effect of fixing build errors when disabling parts of
the dpdk.

The function rte_snprintf serves no useful purpose. It is the
same as snprintf() for all valid inputs. Deprecate it and
replace all uses in current code.
Leave the tests for the deprecated function in place.
