[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/3] mbuf:add two TX offload flags and change three fields

In place of removing the PKT_TX_VXLAN_CKSUM, we introduce 2 new flags: PKT_TX_OUT_IP_CKSUM, PKT_TX_UDP_TUNNEL_PKT, and a new field: l4_tun_len.
Replace the inner_l2_len and the inner_l3_len field with the outer_l2_len and outer_l3_len field.

PKT_TX_OUT_IP_CKSUM: is not used for non-tunnelling packet;hardware outer checksum for tunnelling packet.
PKT_TX_UDP_TUNNEL_PKT: is used to tell PMD that the transmit packet is a UDP tunneling packet.
l4_tun_len: for VXLAN packet, it should be udp header length plus VXLAN header length.
