  DPDK defines cmdline input buffer size to 512 characters.
That buffer size can be too small for long application input.
For example, the following flow template API testpmd command is 444
bytes long:
```
flow queue 0 create 0 template_table 1000 \
  pattern_template 0 actions_template 0 postpone no \
  pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end \
  actions modify_field op set dst_type tag dst_level 0 dst_offset 0 \
    src_type value src_value 0x31 width 32 /  \
    modify_field op set dst_type ipv4_src src_type value \
    src_value 10101010 width 32 / modify_field op add dst_type \
    ipv4_ttl dst_level 0 dst_offset 0 src_type value \
    src_value ff width 8 / count / jump group 100 / end
```

The patch increases cmdline input buffer size to the LINE_MAX value,
which typically is 2048 bytes.
