[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/2] l2fwd: rework long options parsing

Do the same than in l3fwd to avoid strcmp() for long options.

For l2fwd, there is no long option that take advantage of this new
mechanism as --mac-updating and --no-mac-updating are directly setting a
flag without needing an entry in the switch/case.

So this patch just prepares the framework in case a new long option is
added in the future.
