i40e: add support for XDP multi-buffer Rx



This patch adds multi-buffer support for the i40e_driver.

i40e_clean_rx_irq() is modified to collate all the buffers of a packet
before calling the XDP program. xdp_buff is built for the first frag of
the packet and subsequent frags are added to it. 'next_to_process' is
incremented for all non-EOP frags while 'next_to_clean' stays at the
first descriptor of the packet. XDP program is called only on receiving
EOP frag.

New functions are added for adding frags to xdp_buff and for post
processing of the buffers once the xdp prog has run. For XDP_PASS this
results in a skb with multiple fragments.

i40e_build_skb() builds the skb around xdp buffer that already contains
frags data. So i40e_add_rx_frag() helper function is now removed. Since
fields before 'dataref' in skb_shared_info are cleared during
napi_skb_build(), xdp_update_skb_shared_info() is called to set those.

For i40e_construct_skb(), all the frags data needs to be copied from
xdp_buffer's shared_skb_info to newly constructed skb's shared_skb_info.

This also means 'skb' does not need to be preserved across i40e_napi_poll()
calls and hence is removed from i40e_ring structure.

Previously i40e_alloc_rx_buffers() was called for every 32 cleaned
buffers. For multi-buffers this may not be optimal as there may be more
cleaned buffers in each i40e_clean_rx_irq() call. So this is now called
when at least half of the ring size has been cleaned.
