pipeline: support packet redirection at action handlers

Currently, there is no mechanism that allows the pipeline ports (in/out)
and table action handlers to override the default forwarding decision
(as previously configured per input port or in the table entry). The port
(in/out) and table action handler prototypes have been changed to allow
pipeline action handlers (port in/out, table) to remove the selected
packets from the further pipeline processing and to take full ownership
for these packets. This feature will be helpful to implement functions
such as exception handling (e.g. TTL =0), load balancing etc.

app/pipeline: packet framework benchmark

This application is purposefully built to benchmark the performance
of the Intel DPDK Packet Framework toolbox.

It uses 3 CPU cores connected in a chain through SW rings
(NICs --> Core A --> Core B --> Core C --> NICs)
1. Core A: reads packets from NIC ports and writes them to SW queues;
2. Core B: instantiates a Packet Framework pipeline that uses ring reader
input ports, a table whose type is selected trhough command line arguments
(--none, --stub, --lpm, --acl, --hash[-spec]-KEYSZ-TYPE, with KEYSZ as
8, 16 or 32 bytes and TYPE as ext (Extendible bucket) or lru (LRU))
and ring writers output ports;
3. Core C: reads packets from SW rings and writes them to NIC ports.
