btw, remember to add "." at the end of the commit title. so "dpcls: enable cpu feature detection."

The strings are hard-coded here to abstract the OVS APIs from DPDK rte_cpu_flag_t. Indeed the implementation here can be extended to check any CPU flags, but would require some additional CHECK_CPU_FEATURE() macros. The number of ISA combinations actually used is generally limited to < 10, so I see no issue with implementing as individual checks. It is possible to change the API to directly use RTE_CPUFLAG_*, however I'm not sure that's a clean API. DPDK uses an "__extension__ enum rte_cpu_flag_t" to define CPU flags, which feels like it would better be contained in a .c file inside OVS. To contain the rte_cpu_flag_t in a .c I wrapped it into a "string arch, string cpu_feature" combo, which I believe is much more flexible, and a more generic API for OVS. /* An alternative API, but IMO it is a worse solution due to DPDK datatype in an OVS API. */ int dpdk_get_cpu_has_isa(const char *arch, enum rte_cpu_flag_t cpuflag);

This commit implements a method to retrieve the CPU ISA capabilities. These ISA capabilities can be used in OVS to select a function implementation that uses the best ISA available on the CPU being used.
