Increase default mbuf size and code simplification/cleanup

mbuf size was setup to achieve the best performance i.e.
using the smallest mbuf and not segmenting packets.
However this resulted in complex code, much dependent of the way
the pmd are working e.g. a change(fix) in recent dpdk i40e
implementation caused a 1782 (=1518+8+256) bytes mbuf to be too
small to hold a 1518 bytes packets.
Hence this change simplifies the mbuf size selection at the price
of a potential decreases in performance - as more memory is now used.
Except if jumbo frames are used, the mbuf size will now be the same
for all modes. The packets will not be segmented except if jumbo
frames are enabled.
If jumbo frames are enabled, packets are by default segmented, except
if the mbuf size is configured big enough in the config file.
