In order to unify the packet type, the field of 'packet_type' in
'struct rte_mbuf' needs to be extended from 16 to 32 bits.
Accordingly, some fields in 'struct rte_mbuf' are re-organized to
support this change for Vector PMD. As 'struct rte_kni_mbuf' for
KNI should be right mapped to 'struct rte_mbuf', it should be
modified accordingly. In addition, Vector PMD of ixgbe is disabled
by default, as 'struct rte_mbuf' changed.
To avoid breaking ABI compatibility, all the changes would be
enabled by RTE_NEXT_ABI, which is disabled by default.

v2 changes:
* Enlarged the packet_type field from 16 bits to 32 bits.
* Redefined the packet type sub-fields.
* Updated the 'struct rte_kni_mbuf' for KNI according to the mbuf changes.
v3 changes:
* Put the mbuf layout changes into a single patch.
* Disabled vector ixgbe PMD by default, as mbuf layout changed.
v5 changes:
* Re-worded the commit logs.
v6 changes:
* Disabled the code changes for unified packet type by default, to
avoid breaking ABI compatibility.
v7 changes:
* Renamed RTE_UNIFIED_PKT_TYPE to RTE_NEXT_ABI.
* Integrated with changes of QinQ stripping/insertion.
v8 changes:
* Moved the field of 'vlan_tci_outer' in 'struct rte_mbuf' to the end
of the 1st cache line, to avoid breaking any vectorized PMD storing.
