ConnectX-5 supports enhanced version of multi-packet send (MPS). An MPS Tx
descriptor can carry multiple packets either by including pointers of
packets or by inlining packets. Inlining packet data can be helpful to
better utilize PCIe bandwidth. In addition, Enhanced MPS supports hybrid
mode - mixing inlined packets and pointers in a descriptor. This feature is
enabled by default if supported by HW.

The patch is to add support for MCDI proxy which comes in
useful, particularly, while running over VF: few commands
will normally fail with EPERM, but in some cases the host
driver (i.e. running over the corresponding PF, typically,
within a hypervisor) may set itself as a proxy to conduct
authorization for the commands coming from VFs; these are
forwarded to the corresponding access control application
which may decline or approve authorization by replying to
the requests; all in all, the guest driver has to process
the replies forwarded back by the firmware MC in order to
give up gracefully (by setting return code which could be
understood by 'libefx') or re-issue the original commands

This commit adds a signal-based trigger to the Rx burst function in order
to avoid unnecessary system calls while Rx queues are empty.
Triggered Rx bursts put less pressure on the kernel, free up CPU resources
for applications and result in a noticeable performance improvement when
sharing CPU threads with other PMDs.
Measuring the traffic forwarding rate between two physical devices in
testpmd (IO mode, single thread, 64B packets) before and after adding two
tap PMD instances (4 ports total) that do not process any traffic and
comparing results yields:
Without Rx trigger:
-15% (--burst=32)
-62% (--burst=1)
With Rx trigger:
-0.3% (--burst=32)
-6% (--burst=1)

The hardware offload capabilities are not being advertised for the EM PMD.
Because of this, applications that only enable these features if the device
advertises them will never do so.
Normally this is not an issue since normal packet processing should work
even if hardware offload is not available. But, in older versions of
Virtual Box the e1000 device emulation (Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop 82540EM)
assumes that it should enable VLAN stripping even if the driver does not
request it. This means that any ingress packets that have a VLAN tag will
be stripped. Since the application did not request to enable VLAN
stripping it is not expecting these packets so they are not processed as
VLAN packets.
Regardless of the Virtual Box issue, the driver should be advertising
supported capabilities as is done in other drivers.
