The definition value for IPPROTO_DIVERT protocol uses a value
which is out of range of the uint8_t type, giving clang compiler
errors on FreeBSD.
app/test-pmd/icmpecho.c:231:7: fatal error: overflow converting case value
to switch condition type (258 to 2) [-Wswitch]
case IPPROTO_DIVERT: /**< divert pseudo-protocol */
This is fixed by having the code to return the protocol name
use the uint16_t type for the protocol value input.

It was impossible to include netinet/in.h and rte_ip.h
because the IP protocols were redefined.
It is removed because useless.

The mbuf structure already contains a pointer to the beginning of the
buffer (m->buf_addr). It is not needed to use 8 bytes again to store
another pointer to the beginning of the data.
Using a 16 bits unsigned integer is enough as we know that a mbuf is
never longer than 64KB. We gain 6 bytes in the structure thanks to
this modification.

* Updated to apply to latest on mainline.
* Disabled vector PMD in config as it relies heavily on the mbuf layout
This will be re-enabled in a subsequent commit once vPMD has been
reworked to take account of mbuf changes.

The rte_pktmbuf structure was initially included in the rte_mbuf
structure. This was needed when there was 2 types of mbuf (ctrl and
packet). As the control mbuf has been removed, we can merge the
rte_pktmbuf into the rte_mbuf structure.
Advantages of doing this:
- the access to mbuf fields is easier (ex: m->data instead of m->pkt.data)
- make the structure more consistent: for instance, there was no reason
to have the ol_flags field in rte_mbuf
- it will allow a deeper reorganization of the rte_mbuf structure in the
next commits, allowing to gain several bytes in it

Add a new specific packet processing engine in the "testpmd" application that
only replies to ARP requests and to ICMP echo requests.
For this purpose, a new "icmpecho" forwarding mode is provided that can be
dynamically selected with the following testpmd command:
set fwd icmpecho
before starting the receipt of packets on the selected ports.
Then, the "icmpecho" engine performs the following actions on all received
packets:
- replies to a received ARP request by sending back on the RX port a ARP
reply with a "sender hardware address" field containing the MAC address
of the RX port,
- replies to a ICMP echo request by sending back on the RX port a ICMP echo
reply, swapping the IP source and the IP destination address in the IP
header,
- otherwise, simply drops the received packet.
When replying to a received packet that was encapsulated into a VLAN tunnel,
the reply is sent back with the same VLAN identifier.
By default, the testpmd configures VLAN header stripping RX option on each
port.
This option is not managed by the icmpecho engine which won't detect
packets that were encapsulated into a VLAN.
To address this issue, the VLAN header stripping option must be previously
switched off with the following testpmd command:
vlan set strip off
When the "verbose" mode has been set with the testpmd command
"set verbose 1", the "icmpecho" engine displays informations about each
received packet.
The "icmpecho" forwarding engine can also be used to simply check port
connectivity at the hardware level (check that cables are well-plugged)
and at the software level (receipt of VLAN packets, for instance).
