To use cores with IDs greater than RTE_MAX_LCORE the user must provide a
mapping of those higher core numbers to ids within the 0 - RTE_MAX_LCORE
range. This can be awkward to do manually when more than a few lcores
are involved, so instead we can provide an extra option to EAL to do
this manually.

This patch therefore introduces the "map-lcore-ids" flag, which
automatically maps all provided lcore numbers to start at zero.
