Vector code reorganisation/deduplication:
To avoid maintaining two nearly identical implementations of calc_addr()
(one for SSE, another for AVX2), replace it with a new macro that suits
both SSE and AVX2 code-paths.
Also remove no needed any more MM_* macros.

Reorganise SSE code-path a bit by moving lo/hi dwords shuffle
out from calc_addr().
That allows to make calc_addr() for SSE and AVX2 practically identical
and opens opportunity for further code deduplication.

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.
