Enable "other kdrv" because both NICs require kernel support to work.
Unicast and multicast MAC filters are also enabled as both address types can
be filtered on through the MAC add/remove/set callbacks.

Note: virtio is a para-virtualization device, which indicates that its
features depend on not only front end but also back end. Here by X, we
just mean the feature is supported in front end.

The speed capabilities of a device can be retrieved with
rte_eth_dev_info_get().
The new field speed_capa is initialized in the drivers without
taking care of device characteristics in this patch.
When the capabilities of a driver are accurate, the table in
overview.rst must be filled.

The patch introduces a new PMD. This PMD is implemented as thin wrapper
of librte_vhost. It means librte_vhost is also needed to compile the PMD.
The vhost messages will be handled only when a port is started. So start
a port first, then invoke QEMU.
The PMD has 2 parameters.
- iface: The parameter is used to specify a path to connect to a
virtio-net device.
- queues: The parameter is used to specify the number of the queues
virtio-net device has.
(Default: 1)
Here is an example.
$ ./testpmd -c f -n 4 --vdev 'eth_vhost0,iface=/tmp/sock0,queues=1' -- -i
To connect above testpmd, here is qemu command example.
$ qemu-system-x86_64 \
<snip>
-chardev socket,id=chr0,path=/tmp/sock0 \
-netdev vhost-user,id=net0,chardev=chr0,vhostforce,queues=1 \
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net0,mq=on

In order to better compare the drivers and check what is missing
for a common baseline, we need to fill a matrix.
A CSS trick is used to fit the HTML page.
The PDF output needs some LaTeX wizardry.
