Add a new devarg 'snaplen' to configure the pcap snapshot length,
which controls the maximum packet size for capture and output.

The snapshot length affects:
- The pcap_set_snaplen() call when capturing from interfaces
- The pcap_open_dead() snapshot parameter for output files
- The reported max_rx_pktlen in device info
- The reported max_mtu in device info (snaplen - ethernet header)

The default value is 65535 bytes, preserving backward compatibility
with previous driver behavior.

Example usage:
  --vdev 'net_pcap0,iface=eth0,snaplen=1518'
  --vdev 'net_pcap0,rx_pcap=in.pcap,tx_pcap=out.pcap,snaplen=9000'

   In this case, one dummy Rx queue is created for each Tx queue argument 
passed.
 
+* Set the snapshot length for packet capture
+
+  The snapshot length controls the maximum number of bytes captured per packet.
+  This affects both interface capture and pcap file output.  The default value 
is
+  65535 bytes, which captures complete packets up to the maximum Ethernet jumbo
+  frame size.  Reducing this value can improve performance when only packet 
headers
+  are needed.  This can be done with the ``snaplen`` devarg, for example::
+
+     --vdev 'net_pcap0,iface=eth0,snaplen=1518'
+     --vdev 'net_pcap0,rx_pcap=in.pcap,tx_pcap=out.pcap,snaplen=9000'
+
+  The snapshot length also determines the reported ``max_rx_pktlen``
+  and ``max_mtu`` in device info.
