libeth: xdp: add helpers for preparing/processing &libeth_xdp_buff

Add convenience helpers to build an &xdp_buff. This means: general
initialization before the NAPI loop, adding head, adding frags etc.
libeth_xdp_process_buff() is the same what everybody have in their
drivers:

dma_sync_for_cpu();

if (!frag) {
	add_head();
	prefetch();
} else {
	add_frag();
}

Note that I don't use net_prefetch(), sticking to the original
prefetch(). In none of my tests prefetching 128 bytes yielded better
perf than 64 bytes. That might differ if the headers are huge enough,
but then additional tunneling etc. overhead takes place, you either
way won't win a lot.

&libeth_xdp_stash is for cases when you exit the polling loop without
finishing building the buff. If that happens, you need to store the
buffer in the queue structure until the next loop and then restore it.
It makes no sense to place a whole full &xdp_buff there. Define a
minimal structure, which would store only the fields essential to
restore it.
I was able to pack it into 16 bytes, which is only 8 bytes bigger
than `struct sk_buff *skb` on x64.
