Introduce l{2,3,4}_hdr_offset fields in the buffer metadata
To save space in the first cacheline following is changed: - total_length_not_including_first_buffer moved to the 2nd cacheline. This field is used only when VLIB_BUFFER_TOTAL_LENGTH_VALID and VLIB_BUFFER_NEXT_PRESENT are both set. - free_list_index is now stored in 4bits inside flags, which allows up to 16 free lists. In case we need more we can store index in the 2nd cachelin Change-Id: Ic8521350819391af470d31d3fa1013e67ecb7681 Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>
