  For memif non-zero-copy mode, there is a branch to compare
the mbuf and memif buffer size during memory copying. Add
a fast memory copy path by removing this branch with mbuf
and memif buffer size defined at compile time. The removal
of the branch leads to performance uplift.

When mbuf >= memif buffer size, Rx chooses the fast memcpy
path. Test with 1p1q on Ampere Altra AArch64 server, there
is 2.6% perf gain with non-zero-copy mode, and 1.36% perf
gain with zero-copy mode. Test with 1p1q on Cascade Lake
Xeon X86 server, there is 3.04% perf gain with non-zero-copy
mode, and 0.27% perf gain with zero-copy mode.
