netdev-linux: Detect numa node id.
The patch detects the numa node id from the name of the netdev, by reading the '/sys/class/net/<devname>/device/numa_node'. If not available, ex: virtual device, or any error happens, return numa id 0. Currently only the afxdp netdev type uses it, other linux netdev types are disabled due to no use case.

-#. Device's numa ID is always 0, need a way to find numa id from a netdev.
#. No QoS support because AF_XDP netdev by-pass the Linux TC layer. A possible
work-around is to use OpenFlow meter action.
#. Most of the tests are done using i40e single port. Multiple ports and
