[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v8 3/4] net: work around s_addr macro on Windows

Windows Sockets headers contain `#define s_addr S_un.S_addr`, which
conflicts with definition of `s_addr` field of `struct rte_ether_hdr`.
Prieviously `s_addr` was undefined in <rte_ether.h>, which had been
breaking access to `s_addr` field of `struct in_addr`, so some DPDK
and Windows headers could not be included in one file.

Renaming of `struct rte_ether_hdr` is planned:
https://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2021-March/201444.html

Temporarily disable `s_addr` macro around `struct rte_ether_hdr`
definition to avoid conflict. Place source MAC address in both `s_addr`
and `S_un.S_addr` fields, so that access works either directly or
through the macro as defined in Windows headers.
