[RFC PATCH dpdk 1/3] graph: optimize rte_node_enqueue_next to batch by edge

Replace the per-object rte_node_enqueue_x1() calls with batched
rte_node_enqueue() calls. The function now tracks runs of consecutive
objects going to the same edge and flushes them in bulk.

When all objects go to the same edge and come from the node's own
buffer (objs == node->objs), use rte_node_next_stream_move() which
swaps pointers instead of copying.
