Add support for enhanced multi-packet write on Windows.
Enhanced multi-packet write allows the Tx burst function to pack up
multiple packets in a single descriptor session to save PCI bandwidth
and improve performance.
The feature can be controlled by the txq_mpw_en PMD argument:
txq_mpw_en=1 - PMD will first attempt to use "enhanced multi packet write"
if the feature is not supported by the HW the legacy "multi packet write"
will be used.
if both are unsupported the multi packet write feature is disabled.
txq_mpw_en=0 - multi packet write is disabled.
txq_mpw_en unset(default) - enhanced multi packet write
will be activated if supported.
if unsupported the multi packet write feature is disabled.

New Features
------------
-.. This section should contain new features added in this release.
- Sample format:
+* **Updated NVIDIA mlx5 driver.**
- * **Add a title in the past tense with a full stop.**
-
- Add a short 1-2 sentence description in the past tense.
- The description should be enough to allow someone scanning
- the release notes to understand the new feature.
-
- If the feature adds a lot of sub-features you can use a bullet list
- like this:
-
- * Added feature foo to do something.
- * Enhanced feature bar to do something else.
-
- Refer to the previous release notes for examples.
-
- Suggested order in release notes items:
- * Core libs (EAL, mempool, ring, mbuf, buses)
- * Device abstraction libs and PMDs (ordered alphabetically by vendor name)
- - ethdev (lib, PMDs)
- - cryptodev (lib, PMDs)
- - eventdev (lib, PMDs)
- - etc
- * Other libs
- * Apps, Examples, Tools (if significant)
-
- This section is a comment. Do not overwrite or remove it.
- Also, make sure to start the actual text at the margin.
- =======================================================
+ * Added support for multi-packet RQ on Windows.
+ * Added support for CQE compression on Windows.
+ * Added support for enhanced multi-packet write on Windows.
