rxq_cycle_sort is used to sort the rx queues by their measured number
of cycles. In the event that they are equal 0 could be returned.
However, it is observed that returning 0 results in a different sort
order on Windows/Linux. This is ok in practice but it causes a unit
test failure for
"1007: PMD - pmd-cpu-mask/distribution of rx queues" on Windows.
In order to have a consistent sort result, introduce a tiebreaker of
port/queue.
Fixes: 655856ef39b9 ("dpif-netdev: Change rxq_scheduling to use rxq processing
cycles.")
