d9094bda5c bpf: make xdp sample variable names more meaningful
The naming choice of index is not terribly descriptive, and dropcnt is
in fact incorrect for xdp2. Pick better names for these: ipproto and
rxcnt.

764cbccef8 bpf: add sample for xdp forwarding and rewrite
Add a sample that rewrites and forwards packets out on the same
interface. Observed single core forwarding performance of ~10Mpps.

Since the mlx4 driver under test recycles every single packet page, the
perf output shows almost exclusively just the ring management and bpf
program work. Slowdowns are likely occurring due to cache misses.
