ip: enhance vtep4_check of tunnel by vector way
This patch aims to improve decap performance by reducing expensive
hash_get callings as less as possible using AVX512 on XEON.
e.g. vxlan, vxlan_gpe, geneve, gtpu.
For the existing code, if vtep4 of the current packet match the last
vtep4_key_t well, expensive hash computation can be avoided and the
code returns directly.
This patch improves tunnel decap multiple flows case greatly by
leveraging 512bit vector register on XEON accommodating 8 vtep4_keys.
It enhances the possiblity of avoiding unnecessary hash computing
once hash key of the current packet hits any one of 8 in the 512bit
cache.
The oldest element in vtep4_cache_t is updated in round-robin order.
vlib_get_buffers is also leveraged in the meanwhile.
