This patch set adds APIs for multi-queue packet IO. It does not remove or modify
existing API calls, so that multi-queue can be verified first with couple of 
apps and implementations. Single queue APIs (e.g. odp_pktio_inq_setdef()) and 
potentially plain _recv() and _send() should be removed once everything is 
ported to use the new API (potentially with num_queues == 1).

Configuration of multiple packet input and output queues fit better into pktio 
API than classification and TM APIs. Multi-queue is more generally needed (and 
provided) than classification or TM. Classification (and potentially TM) API 
spec should be aligned to use the new default input/output queue setup.

v2:
 * changed hash proto to bit field to allow selection of multiple protocols
 * added IPv4 and IPv6 protocols
 * defined odp_pktin_queue_t and pktout_queue_t handle types instead 
   of using indexes
 * use term single_thr instead of lock_free
 * added hash_ena to control if hashing (or classification) is used for 
   spreading flows to multiple queues
