[dpdk-stable] [PATCH] config: enable packet prefetching with Meson

With Make build system, RTE_PMD_PACKET_PREFETCH was enabled
by default. It got lost when transitioning to Meson build
system.

In order to avoid performance changes, this patch enables
packet prefetching in rte_config.h.

Hi Bruce,

We were not sure whether adding below Fixes tag so that it is
backported to LTSes. What do you think?
