doc: reword some sample app guides

I have reviewed these sections for grammar/clarity
and made small modifications to the formatting of sections
to adhere to a template which will create uniformality
in the sample application user guides overall.

examples/l2fwd-event: support event vector

Added changes to receive packets as event vector. By default this is
disabled and can be enabled using the option --event-vector. Vector
size and timeout to form the vector can be configured using options
--event-vector-size and --event-vector-tmo.

Example:
dpdk-l2fwd-event -l 0-3 -n 4 -- -p 0x03 --mode=eventdev \
--eventq-sched=ordered --event-vector --event-vector-size 16

doc: use code snippets in sample app guides

Currently the sample app user guides use hard coded code snippets,
this patch changes these to use literalinclude which will dynamically
update the snippets as changes are made to the code.
This was introduced in commit 413c75c33c40 ("doc: show how to include
code in guides"). Comments within the sample apps were updated to
accommodate this as part of this patch. This will help to ensure that
the code within the sample app user guides is up to date and not out
of sync with the actual code.

examples/l2fwd-event: add option to configure port pairs

Current l2fwd-event application statically configures adjacent ports as
destination ports for forwarding the traffic.

Add a config option to pass the forwarding port pair mapping which allows
the user to configure forwarding port mapping.

If no config argument is specified, destination port map is not
changed and traffic gets forwarded with existing mapping.

To align port/queue configuration of each lcore with destination port
map, port/queue configuration of each lcore gets modified when config
option is specified.

Ex: ./l2fwd-event -c 0xff -- -p 0x3f -q 2 --config="(0,3)(1,4)(2,5)"

With above config option, traffic received from portid = 0 gets forwarded
to port = 3 and vice versa, similarly traffic gets forwarded on other port
pairs (1,4) and (2,5).
