Previously, there is instability during vector Rx if descriptor
number is not power of 2, e.g. process hang and some Rx packets

This patch allows vector mode only when the number of Rx descriptor

c11f654042 net/i40e: add option to use latest vector path
For IA, the AVX2 vector path is only recommended to be used on later
platforms (identified by AVX512 support, like SKL etc.) This is because
performance benchmark shows downgrade when running AVX2 vector path on
early platform (BDW/HSW) in some cases. But we still observe perf gain
with some real work loading.

So this patch introduced the new devarg use-latest-supported-vec to
force the driver always selecting the latest supported vec path. Then
apps are able to take AVX2 path on early platforms. And this logic can
be re-used if we will have AVX512 vec path in future.

This patch only affects IA platforms. The selected vec path would be
like the following:
  Without devarg/devarg = 0:
  Machine	vPMD
  AVX512F	AVX2
  AVX2	SSE4.2
  SSE4.2	SSE4.2
  <SSE4.2	Not Supported

  With devarg = 1
  Machine	vPMD
  AVX512F	AVX2
  AVX2	AVX2
  SSE4.2	SSE4.2
  <SSE4.2	Not Supported

Other platforms can also apply the same logic if necessary in future.

864a800d70 net/i40e: remove VF interrupt handler
For i40evf, internal rx interrupt and adminq interrupt share the same
source, that cause a lot cpu cycles be wasted on interrupt handler
on rx path. This is complained by customers which require low latency
(when set I40E_ITR_INTERVAL to small value), but have to be sufferred by
tremendous interrupts handling that eat significant CPU resources.

The patch disable pci interrupt and remove the interrupt handler,
replace it with a low frequency (50ms) interrupt polling daemon
which is implemented by registering a alarm callback periodly, this
save CPU time significently: On a typical x86 server with 2.1GHz CPU,
with low latency configure (32us) we saw CPU usage from top commmand
reduced from 20% to 0% on management core in testpmd).

Also with the new method we can remove compile option: I40E_ITR_INTERVAL
which is used to balance between low latency and low CPU usage previously.
Now we don't need it since we can reach both at same time.

Add support for virtual function representor ports to the i40e PF
driver. When SR-IOV virtual functions devices are enabled a
corresponding representor port for each VF can be enabled, in the
process in which the i40e PMD is running, by specifying the
representor devargs with the list of VF ports that representors
are to be created for.

An example of the devargs which would create VF representor for virtual
functions 0,2,4,5,6 and 7 is:

-w DBDF,representor=[0,2,4-7]

and to just specify a single representor on virtual function 3 (switch
port id):

-w DBDF,representor=3

Without this patch, the number of queues per i40e VF is set to 4

It is a fixed value determined at compile time and can't be changed

With this patch, the number of queues per i40e VF can be determined

aaaa:bb.cc, with the EAL parameter -w aaaa:bb.cc,queue-num-per-vf=8,
the number of queues per VF created from this PF is set to 8.
If there is no "queue-num-per-vf" setting in EAL parameters, it uses
the default value of 4. And if the value after the "queue-num-per-vf"
is invalid, it will also use the default value. The valid values can
be 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16.
