[packet] add scatter()

Add a packet function that does the opposite of the coalescse.
It take a packet and returnes a 'scattered' clone of it.
The second argument is a scatter pattern list. It has the form
{ {len, offset}, {len, offset} ... }

An example invocation:

scattered = packet.scatter(p, {{10}, {100, 20}}

This will create a new packet with the following iovec layout:
 - 10 bytes at offset 0
 - 100 bytes starting at offset 20
 - the rest starting at offset 0

[apps] add fuzz app

The generation is done in 2 phases:
 - payload generation - stacking Raw data, Ethernet, IPv4, IPv6,
   TCP and UDP protocol layers
 - scatter the data to predefined iovec layouts

Each packet is marked at its payload end with a unique number. Upon
receiving this number is used to find the originating match. Their
parsed headers are then compared and verified.

NOTE: This implies that the the packets are received assembled if
any fragmentation was used. So GSO should be enabled on both TX/RX.
