At the moment, PCAP interfaces use dummy MAC by default. This change
adds support for selecting PCAP physical interface MAC with phy_mac=1
devarg. This allows to setup packet flows using the physical interface
MAC.

v7:
* Add internal->phy_mac to be able to free data->mac_addrs
* code review comments applied
* doc format updates
* NOTE: FreeBSD functionality not tested

v8:
* don't access kvlist internals directly
* store phy_mac in pmd_devargs instead of passing as arg to function

Able to test on FreeBSD, works fine.

>> At the moment, PCAP interfaces use dummy MAC by default. This change
>> adds support for selecting PCAP physical interface MAC with phy_mac=1
>> devarg. This allows to setup packet flows using the physical interface

+- Use PCAP interface physical MAC
+
+ In case ``iface=`` configuration is set, user may want to use the selected interface's physical MAC
+ address. This can be done with a ``devarg`` ``phy_mac``, for example::
+
+   --vdev 'net_pcap0,iface=eth0,phy_mac=1'
