Removed pseudo header calculation for udp/tcp/tso packets from
application and used Tx preparation API for packet preparation and
verification.
Adding additional step to the csum engine costs about 3-4% of
performance drop, on my setup with ixgbe driver. It's caused mostly by
the need of reaccessing and modification of packet data.
