Introduce new option --vmware-tsc-map, ignored if
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EAL_VMWARE_TSC_MAP_SUPPORT is not set.
Default is CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EAL_VMWARE_TSC_MAP_SUPPORT=y.
if CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EAL_VMWARE_TSC_MAP_SUPPORT is set:
rte_rdtsc() selects at runtime between Vmware mapping of
TSC or native TSC
else
rte_rdtsc() always uses native rdtsc.
When running DPDK on VMware guest, enable --vmware-tsc-map to
read the physical TSC.
Caution: ESXi should pass monitor_control.pseudo_perfctr = TRUE
othewise it results in general protection fault.
