This patch extends the TX/RX packet abstractions with features that will
be used by the e1000e device implementation.
Changes are:
1. Support iovec lists for RX buffers
2. Deeper RX packets parsing
3. Loopback option for TX packets
4. Extended VLAN headers handling
5. RSS processing for RX packets

This patch drops "vmx" prefix from packet abstractions names
to emphasize the fact they are generic and not tied to any
specific network device.
These abstractions will be reused by e1000e emulation implementation
introduced by following patches so their names need generalization.
