Each thread had its own version of the `machine_start_time`, which
lead to slight time differences. This became apparent mostly in IPS,
where 2 threads each process a side of the flow.
This patch makes the `machine_start_time` global.
Work towards making `suricata-common.h` only introduce system headers
and other things that are independent of complex internal Suricata
data structures.
Update files to compile after this.
Remove special DPDK handling for strlcpy and strlcat, as this caused
many compilation failures w/o including DPDK headers for all files.
Remove packet macros from decode.h and move them into their own file,
turn them into functions and rename them to match our function naming
policy.
Register a new runmode - DPDK. This enables a new flag on Suricata start
(--dpdk).
With the flag given, DPDK runmode is enabled.
Runmode loads the configuration and then initializes EAL.
If successful, it configures the physical NICs according to the configuration
file. After that, worker threads are initialized and then are in continuous
receive loop.
