There is an option for recording RSS hash with packets in the
pcapng standard. This implements this for all received packets.
There is a corner case that can not be addressed with current
DPDK API's. If using rte_flow() and some hardware it is possible
to write a flow rule that uses another hash function like XOR.
But there is no API that records this, or provides the algorithm
info on a per-packet basis.
Wireshark recently merged support for displaying the recorded hash
option (for, yet to be released, version 4.1).

The rte_pcapng_write_packets() function fails when we try to write more
packets than the IOV_MAX limit. writev() system call is limited by the
IOV_MAX limit. The iovcnt argument is valid if it is greater than 0 and
less than or equal to IOV_MAX as defined in <limits.h>.
To avoid this problem, we can check that all segments of the next
packet will fit into the iovec buffer, whose capacity will be limited
by the IOV_MAX limit. If not, we flush the current iovec buffer to the
file by calling writev() and, if successful, fit the current packet at
the beginning of the flushed iovec buffer.

Make rte_driver opaque for non internal users.
This will make extending this object possible without breaking the ABI.
Introduce a new driver header and move rte_driver definition.
Update drivers and library to use the internal header.
Some applications may have been dereferencing rte_driver objects, mark
this object's accessors as stable.

iova enum definition does not need to be defined as part of the bus API.
Move it to rte_eal.h.
With this step, rte_eal.h does not depend on rte_bus.h and rte_dev.h.
Fix existing code that was relying on these implicit inclusions.

In pcap_tsc_to_ns(), delta * NSEC_PER_SEC will overflow approx 8
seconds after pcap_init is called when using a TSC with a frequency
of 2.5GHz.
To avoid the overflow, update the saved time and TSC value once
delta >= tsc_hz.
