There is a common macro __rte_aligned for alignment,
which is now used where appropriate for consistency.

Previous improvements made scalar method the fastest one
for tiny bunch of packets (< 4).
That allows us to remove specific vector code-path for small number of packets
(search_sse_2) and always use scalar method for such cases.

Introduce new classify() method that uses AVX2 instructions.
>From my measurements:
On HSW boards when processing >= 16 packets per call,
AVX2 method outperforms it's SSE counterpart by 10-25%,
(depending on the ruleset).
When build with the compilers that don't support AVX2 instructions,
make rte_acl_classify_avx2() do nothing and return an error.
At runtime, if librte_acl was build with the compiler that supports AVX2,
this method is selected as default one on HW that supports AVX2.

Make data_indexes long enough to survive idle transitions.
That allows to simplify match processing code.
Also fix incorrect size calculations for data indexes.

Make ACL library to build/work on 'default' architecture:
- make rte_acl_classify_scalar really scalar
(make sure it wouldn't use sse4 instrincts through resolve_priority()).
- Provide two versions of rte_acl_classify code path:
rte_acl_classify_sse() - could be build and used only on systems with sse4.2
and upper, return -ENOTSUP on lower arch.
rte_acl_classify_scalar() - a slower version, but could be build and used
on all systems.
- Addition of a new function rte_acl_classify_alg. This function lets you
specify an enum value to override the acl contexts default algorithm when doing
a classification. This allows an application to specify a classification
algorithm without needing to publicize each method. I know there was concern
over keeping those methods public, but we don't have a static ABI at the moment,
so this seems to me a reasonable thing to do, as it gives us less of an ABI
surface to worry about.
- keep common code shared between these two codepaths.
