[v2,0/7] hash: add extendable bucket and partial key hashing

  The first four commits of the patch set try to fix small issues of
previous code.

The other commits make two major optimizations over the current rte_hash
library.

First, it adds Extendable Bucket Table feature: a new structure that can
accommodate keys that failed to get inserted into the main hash table due to
the unlikely event of excessive hash collisions. The hash table buckets will
get extended using a linked list to host these keys. This new design will
guarantee insertion of 100% of the keys for a given hash table size with
minimal overhead. A new flag value is added for user to indicate if the
extendable bucket feature should be enabled or not. The linked list buckets is
similar concept to the extendable bucket hash table in packet framework.
In details, for insertion, the linked buckets will be used to store the keys
that fail to get in the primary and the secondary bucket and the cuckoo path
could not find an empty location for the maximum path length (small
probability). For lookup, the key is checked first in the primary, then the
secondary, then if the secondary is extended the linked list is traversed
for a possible match.

Second, the patch set changes the current hashing algorithm to be "partial-key
hashing". Partial-key hashing is the concept from Bin Fan, et al.'s paper
"MemC3: Compact and Concurrent MemCache with Dumber Caching and Smarter
Hashing". Instead of storing both 32-bit signature and alternative signature
in the bucket, we only store a small 16-bit signature and calculate the
alternative bucket index by XORing the signature with the current bucket index.
This doubles the hash table memory efficiency since now one bucket
only occupies one cache line instead of two in the original design.

V1->V2:
1. hash: Rewrite rte_hash_get_last_bkt to be more concise.
2. hash: Reorder the rte_hash struct to align cache line better.
3. test: Minor changes in auto test to add key insertion failure check during
iteration test.
4. test: Add new commit to fix read-write test non-consecutive core issue.
4. hash: Add a new commit to remove unnecessary code introduced by previous
patches.
5. hash: Comments improvement and coding style improvements over multiple
places.
