libeth: support different types of buffers for Rx
Unlike previous generations, idpf requires more buffer types for optimal
performance. This includes: header buffers, short buffers, and
no-overhead buffers (w/o headroom and tailroom, for TCP zerocopy when
the header split is enabled).
Introduce libeth Rx buffer type and calculate page_pool params
accordingly. All the HW-related details like buffer alignment are still
accounted. For the header buffers, pick 256 bytes as in most places in
the kernel (have you ever seen frames with bigger headers?).

libeth: add Rx buffer management
Add a couple intuitive helpers to hide Rx buffer implementation details
in the library and not multiplicate it between drivers. The settings are
sorta optimized for 100G+ NICs, but nothing really HW-specific here.
Use the new page_pool_dev_alloc() to dynamically switch between
split-page and full-page modes depending on MTU, page size, required
headroom etc. For example, on x86_64 with the default driver settings
each page is shared between 2 buffers. Turning on XDP (not in this
series) -> increasing headroom requirement pushes truesize out of 2048
boundary, leading to that each buffer starts getting a full page.
The "ceiling" limit is %PAGE_SIZE, as only order-0 pages are used to
avoid compound overhead. For the above architecture, this means maximum
linear frame size of 3712 w/o XDP.
Not that &libeth_buf_queue is not a complete queue/ring structure for
now, rather a shim, but eventually the libeth-enabled drivers will move
to it, with iavf being the first one.
