[dpdk-dev] [RFC 2/2] app/testpmd: add cmd for bonding Tx prepare

Add new command to support enable/disable Tx prepare on each slave of a
bonded device. This helps to test some Tx HW offloads (e.g. checksum and
TSO) for boned devices in testpmd. The related commands are as follows:

set bonding tx_prepare <port_id> [enable|disable]

When this option is enabled, bonding driver would call rte_eth_dev_prepare
to do some adjustment to the packets in the fast path to meet the device's
requirement to turn on some HW offload(e.g. processing pseudo headers when
Tx checksum offload enabled). This help bonded device to use more Tx
offloads.
