This patches will be not include function for Vector, and I will update my code
to
Make it work for offload and simple .

The tx_tail is the last sent packet on the sw_ring. While the xmit_cleanup or
Tx_free_bufs will be call when the nb_tx_free < tx_free_thresh .
So the sw_ring[tx_tail].next_id must be the begin of mbufs which are not used or
Already freed . then begin the loop until the mbuf is used and begin to free
them.

The reason why I don't reuse existing function is that they all free several
mbufs
While the free_cnt of the API rte_eth_tx_done_cleanup() is the number of
packets.
It also need to be done that check which mbuffs are from the same packet.
