Thread assignment to tx queue has always been automatic and there
was no way to modify it. With this patch, it is now possible to use
the cli "set interface tx-queue" to change the thread assignment to
tx queue for vmxnet3 interface, thanks to the new tx infra.

gso option for vmxnet3 is per VPP process currently. There is no reason why
we cannot provide per interface gso support.

For creating the vmxnet3 interface, add the bind option to automatically bind
the pci to vfio-pci module which removes the need for manual bind. Manual bind
still works, should people prefer to go that route.

Add lro/tso and rx checksum support. lro/tso is configured via startup.conf
vmxnet3 { lro }
It is disable by default due to not all versions of ESXi supports it.

Add clear hardware interface counters callback for vmxnet3 device. We take a
snap shot of the statistics in the callback. For the show hardware command,
we display the delta between the current statistics and the last snapshot.

In output.c, we buffer the descriptors and call vmxnet3_reg_write_inline
once outside the loop. This change improves the performance dramatically.
When refilling the ring, there is no need to inform the device unless
explicitly specified by the device (ctrl.update_prod == 1)

There are different flavors of vmxnet3 device, esxi server, vm fusion, vmware
workstation, and vmware player, that we need to communicate with. Each of
them also has different versions. We really need the control plane logging
to debug when things don't work as expected.

show vmxnet3 desc may display 5000 lines of output since it has 5 tables. Each
table may have 1000 entries. It would not be very useful to debug problem.
We need filtering capability for the subject show command. We need to be able
to display the descriptor table per interface, per interface per table, and
per interface per table per slot. The latter is the most useful.
tested the following valid combinations
show vmxnet3
show vmxnet3 desc
show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0
show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 desc
show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 rx-comp
