netmap: monitor: add a flag to distinguish packet direction

The netmap monitor intercepts any TX/RX packets on the monitored
port. However, before this change there was no way to tell
whether an intercepted packet was being transmitted or received
on the monitored port.
A TXMON flag in the netmap slot has been added for this purpose.

netmap: add kernel support for the "offsets" feature

This feature enables applications to ask netmap to transmit or
receive packets starting at a user-specified offset from the
beginning of the netmap buffer. This is meant to ease those
packet manipulation operations such as pushing or popping packet
headers, that may be useful to implement software switches,
routers and other packet processors.
To use the feature, drivers (e.g., iflib, vtnet, etc.) must have
explicit support. This change does not add support for any driver,
but introduces the necessary kernel changes. However, offsets support
is already included for VALE ports and pipes.

netmap: add support for multiple host rings

Some applications forward from/to host rings most or all the
traffic received or sent on a physical interface. In this
cases it is desirable to have more than a pair of RX/TX host
rings, and use multiple threads to speed up forwarding.
This change adds support for multiple host rings. On registering
a netmap port, the user can specify the number of desired receive
and transmit host rings in the nr_host_tx_rings and nr_host_rx_rings
fields of the nmreq_register structure.

netmap: improvements to the netmap kloop (CSB mode)

Changelist:
- Add the proper memory barriers in the kloop ring processing
functions.
- Fix memory barriers usage in the user helpers (nm_sync_kloop_appl_write,
nm_sync_kloop_appl_read).
- Fix nm_kr_txempty() helper to look at rhead rather than rcur. This
is important since the kloop can read a value of rcur which is ahead
of the value of rhead (see explanation in nm_sync_kloop_appl_write)
- Remove obsolete ptnetmap_guest_write_kring_csb() and
ptnet_guest_read_kring_csb(), and update if_ptnet(4) to use those.
- Prepare in advance the arguments for netmap_sync_kloop_[tr]x_ring(),
to make the kloop faster.
- Provide kernel and user implementation for nm_ldld_barrier() and
nm_ldst_barrier()

netmap: align codebase to the current upstream (760279cfb2730a585)

Changelist:
- Replace netmap passthrough host support with a more general
mechanism to call TXSYNC/RXSYNC from an in-kernel event-loop.
No kernel threads are used to use this feature: the application
is required to spawn a thread (or a process) and issue a
SYNC_KLOOP_START (NIOCCTRL) command in the thread body. The
kernel loop is executed by the ioctl implementation, which returns
to userspace only when a different thread calls SYNC_KLOOP_STOP
or the netmap file descriptor is closed.
- Update the if_ptnet driver to cope with the new data structures,
and prune all the obsolete ptnetmap code.
- Add support for "null" netmap ports, useful to allocate netmap_if,
netmap_ring and netmap buffers to be used by specialized applications
(e.g. hypervisors). TXSYNC/RXSYNC on these ports have no effect.
- Various fixes and code refactoring.

Changelist:
- Move large parts of VALE code to a new file and header netmap_bdg.[ch].
This is useful to reuse the code within upcoming projects.
- Improvements and bug fixes to pipes and monitors.
- Introduce nm_os_onattach(), nm_os_onenter() and nm_os_onexit() to
handle differences between FreeBSD and Linux.
- Introduce some new helper functions to handle more host rings and fake
rings (netmap_all_rings(), netmap_real_rings(), ...)
- Added new sysctl to enable/disable hw checksum in emulated netmap mode.
- nm_inject: add support for NS_MOREFRAG

netmap: align codebase to the current upstream (commit id 3fb001303718146)

Changelist:
- Turn tx_rings and rx_rings arrays into arrays of pointers to kring
structs. This patch includes fixes for ixv, ixl, ix, re, cxgbe, iflib,
vtnet and ptnet drivers to cope with the change.
- Generalize the nm_config() callback to accept a struct containing many
parameters.
- Introduce NKR_FAKERING to support buffers sharing (used for netmap
pipes)
- Improved API for external VALE modules.
- Various bug fixes and improvements to the netmap memory allocator,
including support for externally (userspace) allocated memory.
- Refactoring of netmap pipes: now linked rings share the same netmap
buffers, with a separate set of kring pointers (rhead, rcur, rtail).
Buffer swapping does not need to happen anymore.
- Large refactoring of the control API towards an extensible solution;
the goal is to allow the addition of more commands and extension of
existing ones (with new options) without the need of hacks or the
risk of running out of configuration space.
A new NIOCCTRL ioctl has been added to handle all the requests of the
new control API, which cover all the functionalities so far supported.
The netmap API bumps from 11 to 12 with this patch. Full backward
compatibility is provided for the old control command (NIOCREGIF), by
means of a new netmap_legacy module. Many parts of the old netmap.h
header has now been moved to netmap_legacy.h (included by netmap.h).

sys: general adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

No functional change intended.
