Replace the 64K stack-allocated bounce buffer with a per-queue
buffer allocated from hugepages via rte_malloc at queue setup.
This is necessary because the buffer may be used in a secondary
process transmit path where the primary process allocated it.
Fix error accounting: backpressure from pcap_sendpacket() (kernel
socket buffer full) was incorrectly counted as errors. Malformed
multi-segment mbufs where pkt_len exceeds actual data were silently
accepted; they are now detected via rte_pktmbuf_read() failure
and counted as errors.
Add datapath debug logging macros (PMD_RX_LOG, PMD_TX_LOG) gated
on RTE_ETHDEV_DEBUG_RX/TX. Advertise RTE_ETH_TX_OFFLOAD_MULTI_SEGS
in device capabilities since the driver has always supported
multi-segment transmit. Add tx_queue_release to free the bounce
buffer.
