Check cpuflag macro before using vectored api.
-virtio_recv_pkts_vec() uses _sse3__ simd instruction for now so added cpuflag.
- Also wrap other vectored freind api ie..
1) virtqueue_enqueue_recv_refill_simple
2) virtio_rxq_vec_setup

...

Hmm, why not wrapping the whole file, instead of just few functions?

Better to refactor code and make arch specific. Current implementation
is temporary.

Or maybe better, do a compile time check at the Makefile, something
like:

    if has_CPUFLAG_xxx
        SRCS-$(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_VIRTIO_PMD) += virtio_rxtx_simple.c
    endif

Tried this approach but end up with link error,  If I try to fix below
link error then I will be ending up writing similar code,
linker error snap:
