[PATCH v2 1/3] app/testpmd: add register keyword

Currently SSE SIMD variables are declared as stack variables. Allowing
the use of keyword register for shuffle mask and address variables,
improves the mac-swap Mpps by 1 for single queue.
Test Result:
* Platform: AMD EPYC 9554 @3.1GHz, no boost
* Test scenarios: TEST-PMD 64B IO vs MAC-SWAP
* NIC: broadcom P2100: loopback 2*100Gbps
<mode : Mpps Ingress: Mpps Egress>
------------------------------------------------
- IO: 47.23 : 46.0
- MAC-SWAP original: 45.75 : 43.8
- MAC-SWAP register mod 45.73 : 44.83
