[PATCH 2/6] examples/l3fwd-power: check Rx interrupt enable errors

rx_interrupt_wait() enabled the Rx queue interrupts of an lcore through
turn_on_off_intr() and ignored the return of
rte_eth_dev_rx_intr_enable(). Some PMDs report a transient condition
there: for example dpaa2 returns -EAGAIN when it finds traffic already
queued while arming, meaning the queue was not armed and the lcore must
poll rather than sleep.
Split the helper into rx_intr_enable_all(), which returns the error and
unwinds the queues it already armed, and rx_intr_disable_all(). Return
the error from rx_interrupt_wait(); in the sleep path, on -EAGAIN go back
to polling, and on any other error give up interrupt mode for the lcore
instead of sleeping on unarmed queues.
