This adds the code for a new Intel DPDK library for packet distribution. The distributor is a component which is designed to pass packets one-at-a-time to workers, with dynamic load balancing. Using the RSS field in the mbuf as a tag, the distributor tracks what packet tag is being processed by what worker and then ensures that no two packets with the same tag are in-flight simultaneously. Once a tag is not in-flight, then the next packet with that tag will be sent to the next available core.
