35b09d76f8 doc: use corelist instead of coremask
The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be
promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch
adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.

The patch only changes the docs and not the code as the -c option
will continue to exist unless it is removed in the future. The -c
option should be kept to maintain backward compatibility.

faf08c8b0f examples/performance-thread: add packet type parsing
Last changes in Niantic and Fortville NIC drivers causes that
vector Rx path is chosen by default in l3fwd-thread application.
This path doesn't support propagation of hw packet type recognition
to the packet_type field in mbuf, and packets cannot be classified
properly.

The approach to solve this problem is similar to the commit:
71a7e2424e ("examples/l3fwd: fix using packet type blindly").

To use sw packet analyzer, new command line option "--parse-ptype" is
introduced.
