Add a parameter to rte_net_get_ptype() to select which
layers should be parsed. This avoids to parse all layers if
only the first ones are required.

Add support of Nvgre tunnels in rte_net_get_ptype(). At the same
time, as Nvgre transports Ethernet, we need to add the support for inner
Vlan, QinQ, and Mpls.

Add support of IP and IP6 tunnels in rte_net_get_ptype().
We need to duplicate some code because the packet types do not have the
same value for a given protocol between inner and outer.

Introduce the function rte_net_get_ptype() that parses a mbuf and
returns its packet type. For now, the following packet types are parsed:
L2: Ether
L3: IPv4, IPv6
L4: TCP, UDP, SCTP
The goal here is to provide a reference implementation for packet type
parsing. This function will be used by testpmd in next commits, allowing
to compare its result with the value given by the hardware.
This function will also be useful when implementing Rx offload support
in virtio pmd. Indeed, the virtio protocol gives the csum start and
offset, but it does not give the L4 protocol nor it tells if the
checksum is relevant for inner or outer. This information has to be
known to properly set the ol_flags in mbuf.

Previously, librte_net only contained header files. Add a C file
(empty for now) and generate a library. It will contain network helpers
like checksum calculation, software packet type parser, ...
