This one mainly avoids mbuf cluster allocation for TCP ACKs during
TCP sending tests. And it gives me ~200Mbps improvement (4.7Gbps
-> 4.9Gbps), when running iperf3 TCP sending test w/ 16 connections.
While I'm here, nuke the unnecessary zeroing out pkthdr.csum_flags.

- Implement the LRO using tcp_lro APIs, and LRO is enabled by default.
- Add several stats sysctl nodes.
- Check IP/TCP length before sending the packet to tcp_lro_rx(), if host
does not provide RX csum information (*); and add an option through
sysctl to always trust host TCP segment csum checks (default is off).
- Add sysctl to control the LRO entry depth; it is disabled by default.
It is used to avoid holding too much TCP segments in driver. Limiting
the LRO entry depth helps a lot in a one/two streams RX test.
This one 3x the RX performance on my local test (3Gbps -> 10Gbps), and
~2x the RX performance over a directly connected 40Ge network (5Gbps ->
9Gbps).
(*) It seems the host stops supplying csum information, once the network
load is high. This still needs investigation...

offload support was introduced in r284746.
While here also fix the ioctl() handler for IPv4 added in r279819,
which was never compiled in given opt_inet.h was not included.
- Bump link state when stopping or starting the interface;
- Don't handle SIOCGIFADDR specially, similar to r277103.
This change is based on a previous revision from Andy Zhang
(Microsoft) who did the diagnostic work and many thanks to
them for their help in supporting the HyperV work.

- change the SI_SUB_RUN_SCHEDULER sysinits in hv_utilc and
hv_netvsc_drv_freebsd.c to SI_SUB_KTHREAD_IDLE, since the
former is no longer in FreeBSD.
The use of these SYSINITs can probably be removed.
be pulled into FreeBSD. From now, FreeBSD will be considered the
upstream repo.
First step: move the drivers away from the contrib area and into
the base system.
A follow-on commit will include the drivers in the amd64 GENERIC kernel.
