Add MSI-X per-queue Rx interrupt support to the ENETC4 VF PMD on the cacheable (default) Rx path. This allows applications such as l3fwd-power to block in epoll_wait when no traffic is present, reducing CPU utilization to near zero.
MSI-X vector 0 is reserved for the PSI-to-VSI mailbox. Rx queue i is mapped to MSI-X vector i + 1 via ENETC_SIMSIRRV. Per-ring coalescing is enabled with ICPT=1 so the first arriving packet fires the interrupt immediately. The SIRXIDR W1C detect bit is cleared before re-arming ENETC_RBIER to prevent spurious interrupts after traffic stops. The interrupt infrastructure (rte_intr_efd_enable + rte_intr_vec_list_alloc) is set up before rte_intr_enable() so that vfio-pci can wire each MSI-X vector to its eventfd when programming the MSI-X table. enetc4_dev_configure() is updated to trigger interrupt setup when intr_conf.rxq is set (not only when intr_conf.lsc is set), as applications like l3fwd-power set intr_conf.rxq without setting lsc. Documentation is updated to describe the feature, list the kernel and host setup steps, and provide an example l3fwd-power command for single queue/core interrupt-driven operation.
