Add KNI PMD which wraps librte_kni for ease of use.

KNI PMD can be used as any regular PMD to send / receive packets to the
Linux networking stack.

You keep updating this patch in the hope that someone would be interested :)

Please let's make clear that I am OK to merge it
but you asked me to wait for someone supporting its inclusion.

Right, it is good to mention that I explicitly asked to wait community
response.

I keep updating it because I believe this is something useful.

Meanwhile adding this into repo means maintenance cost, so this should
not be merged without any usecase or interest from community.

Patch is waiting for an ACK or NAK from community.

I believe this is useful. No reason for KNI to have to use special
custom rx/tx functions when it can be made to use regular ethdev ones.
