Introduce API to install BPF based filters on ethdev RX/TX path.
Current implementation is pure SW one, based on ethdev RX/TX
callback mechanism.

Add checks for:
- all instructions are valid ones
(known opcodes, correct syntax, valid reg/off/imm values, etc.)
- no unreachable instructions
- no loops
- basic stack boundaries checks
- division by zero
Still need to add checks for:
- use/return only initialized registers and stack data.
- memory boundaries violation

librte_bpf provides a framework to load and execute eBPF bytecode
inside user-space dpdk based applications.
It supports basic set of features from eBPF spec
(https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/filter.txt).
Not currently supported features:
- JIT
- cBPF
- tail-pointer call
- eBPF MAP
- skb
- function calls for 32-bit apps
- mbuf pointer as input parameter for 32-bit apps
